Thought it would be easier as a general chat to reference back to for future questions :cool:

Looking for some recommendations/feedback on some glitter filaments please?
 
Thanks @Fourstar I'll take a look, I ordered a few rolls of BL matt with my initial order discount and its been great but the prices have always been £5-7 higher than other brands.

Does anyone know of some PLA that's colour is close to a traffic cone orange / red? I have spent ages and have found out it's officially RAL color 2009 but I can't seem to get anything close unless buying RAL colour matched PLA at £60 a KG. I've tried Bambu, Sunlu, Eryone, R3D, eSun and the closest thing I have found is Prusament.

eSun Matte tangerine is the closest I've found and settled on, looks very close to a slightly sun bleached cone not brand new :D Flash forge also does a tangerine that looks close in images but I haven't tried it.

I used an Olive green matt Eryone PLA a while back that was quite nice, seems harder to get hold of now. Any good matt colours people can recommend?

Another user of Bambu matt, Dark green/Bone white/Charcoal/Ash Grey all print lovely and are true matt unlike some others I've bought, I tend to do bulk orders on refills which work out at £11.99 a roll when you buy 6.

My Sovol SH02 turned up yesterday and was put straight to work. What a difference, no more "cobwebs" from the PETG Matte white, just a lovely clean print. The fan is noisy though and the reports of the humidity being trapped inside are true. The tiny vents in the top just are not big enough but opening the lid a little gets rid of it, humidity dropped from 36% down to 11%. It's easy to feed the printer direct from the dryer too.

Thanks for the feedback, I've got this and the Creality 2 spool dryer in my basket ready for Amazon Black Friday this weekend, never really had a need but recently had some poor results with translucent and PETG.
 
Anybody looking at getting rid of some Bambu spools? Need some filament but only available in refills, thought I'd try my luck before paying full whack on BL:cry:
 
Needed a Matte blue in a hurry and Bambu Labs was out of stock so ordered some Overture Matte PLA from Amazon.

Holy Smokes - Never used this brand before, printing NFC business cards with a 0.2mm nozzle and no ironing, the top surface finish is incredible :eek:
 
Both mine got cancelled, annoyingly the first order went through at 09:50 and it seems like they dispatched everything up to 09:47.
 
Desperately needing to stock up on some specific Bambu filaments but all still showing out of stock.

I know they outsource their manufacturing but does anyone know of a specific list of identical filaments under other brand names? for example BL PLA Matte charcoal is equivalent to Sunlu PLA+ Matte black etc
