This filament is absolutely beautiful and works perfectly! I love this one it’s probably my favorite I have used so far.
While I'm not particularly fond of the color set in this filament, I do think it has some really cool looks to it once printed out. However, I did experience some stringing issues right out of the box, which was a bit frustrating.
Fortunately, the stringing issue seemed to resolve itself after I dried the filament for about an hour or two in my dryer. This made it much easier to work with and print without any issues.
One of the things that really stood out to me about this filament is its high glossy finish, even when printed at a relatively low temperature (200C) on my hotend. This makes it perfect for creating functional prints or nick-knacks that look great and are easy to clean.
I also appreciated how well this filament stayed down on the print bed, without any warping or curling issues. And, unlike some other filaments I've worked with in the past, I didn't experience any clogging or jamming issues when using it.
As you can see from my pictures, this filament did a great job of printing my take on an airsoft gun based on the Glock 19. Overall, I think this is a nice looking and well-suited filament for creating functional prints or decorative items that need a bit of flair.
Overall, I would recommend this filament to anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality option for their 3D printing needs. While it may not be perfect, its strengths far outweigh its weaknesses!
I got the rainbow silk PLA and gave it the same test I give all silks that are new to me. I dried it overnight (I live in a humid area, so 24 hours is my standard drying time), then loaded a file with a good mix of flat faces, curves, and overhangs into Bambu Studio. I printed it on a BambuLab X1-C with a 0.4mm nozzle, 0.12mm layer height, and otherwise the generic silk profile. This filament printed beautifully, save for one or two blobs that are likely due to the number of print hours on my current nozzle. No isssues with brittleness, clogging, or stringing. The color was a nice pastel with the usual silk sheen.
I would recommend this filament for typical silk applications such as decorative pieces or trim flourishes in multi-material prints with other PLAs.
