Ideal for Artistic and Decorative Projects

  • Use standard PLA settings, a 0.4 mm or larger nozzle, and full cooling for the best surface quality.
  • Use thin walls and controlled infill when translucency is the priority, because wall thickness and internal structure remain visible.
  • Use glue when needed on PC or textured PEI and allow the plate to cool before removal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We've got answers. From choosing the right material to caring for your spools, here's everything you need to know in one spot.

Is this material food safe?

Unfortunately we do not have any data whether this material is food safe. As of now, no 3D printing material on the market is FDA food safe compliant. This is because in order to be certified as food safe, the actual object needs to be certified and not the base material. The shape, bed used, environment the object was made, and much more goes into getting a food safety certificate. As of now there is no real certification that the FDA offers for 3D printing.

Is this material AMS compatible?

Yes! All Panchroma spools now have hardened edges that roll great in the AMS

Do you sell refills?

We are sorry but we do not sell refills at this time

Is this material recyclable?

Unfortunately there is no great answer for recycling PLA at this time. Our cardboard spools are biodegradable but there is no great way to recycle PLA at this time.

What is Panchroma™?

Panchroma™ is a new family of engineered polymer compounds containing PLA. The formulations are fine tuned for each color/surface finish to offer the best aesthetic quality and printability. They can be reliably printed on any FFF/FDM 3D printer under typical PLA settings.

All Panchroma™ products are PLA except for those listed under "experimental".

Can I mix and match effects into a single HueForge print?

This material will mix and match great with all other Panchroma™ effects, except those listed under "experimental".

Customers praised this translucent PLA filament for "excellent quality" and "top notch" print results. Shoppers highlighted vibrant colors, smooth lines, and strong bed adhesion. Multiple reviewers noted it excels at color blending with Full Spectrum and HueForge applications. Quick shipping and excellent packaging were appreciated.

Great Option for Full Spectrum and HueForge!

This translucent gray is really handy for anything involving color blending. I have been using it to great effect with the new Full Spectrum fork of snapmaker orca; see for example my PeggyPalette model on makerworld. Also great for HueForge stuff and similar. Key part of anybody's color blending kit.
