5.0 out of 5 stars A nice change from pure black
After finishing off a roll of another brand's Black I was looking for something a little different but also, not, brightly coloured. That's when the Flashforge sparkly black filament caught my eye.I'm relatively new to 3d printing so far having printed with 'printer's PLA tester orange', a well known brand's black + white, and a lesser known brand's translucent PETG yellow. All the PLA printed fairly well but the PETG was a disaster.After finishing off my last brand roll, I switched over to the FF Galaxy Black. I reviewed the heating instructions and noted it had a melting point of 50c and lower end range of 190c (slightly lower than the other brand PLA I was using before). So I tweaked my slicer settings and put the new filament in my curer for 5 hours at 45c to ensure there was no residual moisture going to affect print quality.Immediately it started stringing and wouldn't stick and panic struck. Why was PLA going wrong when I'd had no problems with my other rolls mere minutes earlier??I immediately knocked my Z down 0.1mm and tried the same print again, voila, problem solved. That's a first!Normally it takes me ages of faffing, with this filament, 1 print and I've then had zero problems with subsequent prints.I showed my other half, my first print and the reaction was "ooh that looks nice, it's sparkles!" which is amazing given it was a kitchen towel for an Ikea rod I grabbed from thing verse which I'd printed (pictures attached of two different varieties, neither matched what I needed, so I am still working on it in Fusion360, will re-upload once I'm happy with it).So first impressions are very good, both from me, and a non-3d printer person. Very easy to dial in. Good adhesion. Can't comment on 'sheerness' Bolo, it's a black filament?!I did read on a group somewhere that 'sparkly' filament can cause issues with the hot end or something so maybe something to be aware of and keep an eye out on, if you run lots of rolls of this kind of filament, perhaps? But no problems for me thus far, from the 4-5 prints I've done so far.Would I recommend this to a friend?YesWould I buy this again?YesAnything else to add?It'd be cool to have a white or cream with sparkly silver bits in it, like the newer marble counter tops you see. Get on it, Flashforge R&D team!
5.0 out of 5 stars Very good ASA filament
This has become my go to filament for most things I print. Copes well with temperatures in car engine bays and not had any structural prints break apart from when I deliberately did so for testing. I do get a bit of warping off the bed when I print over 200x200 but I think that may be my fault for not having the chamber heater on.Overall, can't recommend this ASA enough.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality
Used it with no problem and prints fine but not very sparkly
4.0 out of 5 stars Good PLA, shame about the muddy rainbow
The image suggests the rainbow effect is quick to present itself on a print, in truth you need to be printing multiple items or large projects to get the rainbow effect in your print. The colour palette of the roll I get ranged from a nice green and blue to a baby-poo brown. It is not the most inspiring rainbow! However I cannot fault the PLA itself, a good print and works very well with my Adventurer 5m form Flashforge
5.0 out of 5 stars Good looing and easy to print
Bought this filament for some gate work in the garden. Nice outside colour. Easy to print, and being ASA should last a good while in all weathers.
1.0 out of 5 stars Not good, very brittle and not dark as title suggests
Puchased to print a dark wood item, the colour is really light like a beech wood, I know PLA can be brittle but this stuff was that brittle before I even loaded the printer we had broken bits all over, the stuff tangles up too easily, and it seems that the reccomended settings need reviewing as the performance is terrible you have to print really slow for a good print. I have therefore returned and definatley would not reccomend.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great filament
This is now pretty much my go to filament.Running ion a flash forge 5M Pro with a 0.6mm nozzle and 0.3mm layer height, this stuff is fantastic. It is about as quick as HS-PLA using a 0.4mm nozzle at a 0.2mm layer height. The detail is not as good, obviously, but this stuff is great for functional prototypes. I have made gears, rack & pinions, and various enclosures for product testing. It is noticeably stiffer than standard PLA, and I have made small drill/mill fixtures from it as well with 80% plus infill.The matt finish is also really nice, it looks almost black.
3.0 out of 5 stars Sparkle white isn't white
The sparkle white is far from being white. Don't get me wrong i got these for under £9 per kg, i'll use it.The sparkle black is amazing tho
Print goed en ziet er uitstekend uit
Print goed en ziet er uitstekend uit.Uit de verpakking gehaald en gedroogd in Polydryer voordat ik het heb gebruikt.Ik heb een Bambu P1S.Instelling: Generic ASA.Shrinkage gemeten: X-as 99.44% en Y-as 99.56%. Gemiddelde shrinkage 99.50%.
Nice iridescent color
This Burnt Titanium PLA from Flashforge is absolutely stunning in person. It’s got a subtle color shift that goes from a deep metallic blue to almost bronze depending on the lighting and angles. I used it to print a airpod case and it turned out so clean, I ended up buying a second spool the next day (they were on discount, which helped).The prints came out great on my setup — solid layer adhesion, no warping, and minimal stringing. The color hides layer lines well, so even prints with simple geometry look high-end. It really makes your models stand out without needing any post-processing.The spool was cleanly wound. Honestly, this one’s become one of my favorite PLAs for decorative prints. If you’re into making display pieces or just want your prints to look a little more premium, this one’s a no-brainer. Definitely worth picking up, especially if it's on sale.
Buen filamento
Buen filamento, cumple con su proposito
Lighter color than the pictures
Good after a drying and calibration. It does string a bit no matter what I do.
Horrible bed adhesion
Catastrophic bed adhesion. On a Voron 2.4 with textured PEI bed... I will stick to ABS
