PLA Glitter
PLA Glitter is an aesthetically brilliant PLA based filament with sparkling flakes inside. Slightly modified, the filament retains the typical features of PLA, but is tougher and less brittle. PLA (Polylactic acid) is one of the most popular materials for 3D printing. Because of the translucency of PLA combined with the flakes, the color saturation can be increased by just increasing the wall thickness.
PLA Glitter features:
- High quality 3d printer filament that prints easy on desktop printers.
- All of our materials are made from high quality raw materials and are produced in the United States.
- Supplied as a 1KG spool, vacuum sealed with a desiccant in a resealable transparent bag, and shipped in a spool box
- Permanent color fastness thanks to grade A colorants

Additional information
Due to its low tendency to warp PLA Glitter can also be printed without a heated bed. If you have a heated bed the recommended temperature is
± 95-140˚F | ± 35-60˚C.
PLA Glitter can be used on all common desktop FDM or FFF technology 3D printers. It is recommended to purge the nozzle after printing, to prevent build up of flakes for the next print.
