2.85mm Silk Gold PLA Filament 3D Printer Filament 1KG 2.2LBS Spool 3D Printing Material 3mm Silky Shiny Metallic Gold CC3D

I bought this because my printer uses 2.85mm filament and most "silky" filaments are made in 1.75mm size. I purchased a spool in gold, silver, and copper. I have printed with the gold and silver (I haven't opened the copper yet). First... I tested in a small calibration part and a maker coin to test the material. There was perhaps a tiny bit more stringing than I've had in other filaments ... easily tweaked in the slicer settings. I printed a couple of parts using "vase mode" (spiralize outer contour) and the results are absolutely exceptional! (for both my parts printed in gold and silver). The "gold" has a gorgeous shine and is very bright. It actually looks like... well, gold, frankly. From a distance you wouldn't think it was a 3D printed part. If you print thing (e.g. vase mode), the gold is very slightly transparent (which you could probably play to your advantage if you want to give some a glowing look by lighting it from behind). The silver filament is a bit more dense ... even in vase mode where you just have a single wall thickness, light doesn't really shine through it (possibly a very bright light might). I have not yet tested copper. I've been very happy with it and will certainly buy more whenever my current spools run out.

This 2.85mm filament works great at 200°C on the ultimaker s5 at all speeds from 70mm/s down to whatever is needed (for fine details I run it at 30mm/s). Many folks who have seen the final product have a difficult time believing it's plastic. This is my go-to for gold colored filament (I had tried matterhackers MH build gold, but that was more of a shiny yellow). Someone else said 5 star reviews may be paid, but I've purchased every roll, and received no compensation for my review.

i thoroughally enjoy this filament. long lasting, easy to print, and it looks gorgeous, each and every thing i create with this color is awesome. i highly recommend it

Nothing really to add, other than it worked great, printed great, and looks nice and gold. Used on an Ultimaker 3; fed in nice, worked great.

The finish on prints using this filament are amazing! They look so good and smooth once you get the setting right. If you get the settings right... This filament has a tendancy to not stick to itself after getting extruded so it needs slower extruder speed settings and whatnot. I've also noticed that the finished prints could also split. So this filament is definitely for printing display pieces.

Great product worked great in the 3D printer

Read the other 1 2 and 3 star reviews, this filament is garbage. Completely inconsistent throughout the length. Maybe if you are printing 1mm dots, it could work for you. Don't waste your time or money on it.

Arrived promptly and worked beautifully in my Lulzbot.

المنتج سيء وهو لم يتم استخدامه في الطابعه أتمنى إعادته

色は良い。Ultimaker２で使ってみたところ少し底面の粘着が弱いと感じた。Topはいい感じ！コーティングしたらきらきら

my golden prints were amazing

金というよりはくすんだ黄色という感じでした。出力後に金色の塗装をするという使い方が良さそうです。 予想はしてましたが色がかなり濃く、テーブルが黄色っぽくなりました。別の色のフィラメントに変更するのにもなかなか黄色が抜けず、時間がかかります。 数種類のフィラメントを同じノズルで使いつづけてきたのですが、3年間詰まったことがなかった国産0.5mmノズルが詰まって壊れました。

Filament seemed to be overly brittle. Printed the same 3D battery holder with the same printer and other PETG products still holding up. Battery holder with this product was broke first use. I bought an amazon return and the spool was broken but was still sealed.
