Is there a difference between Panchroma™ Luminous PLA and PolyLite™ Luminous PLA?

No! This is the same great material - just under a new product family name.

What is the difference between Panchroma™ Glow PLA and Panchroma™ Luminous PLA?

These materials both have the same glow effect, the difference is what color they are before being placed in darkness.

Panchroma™ Glow PLA will be a natural color when not in darkness while Panchroma™ Luminous PLA will be the same color while in light as in the dark.

Is this material abrasive?

Yes - you will need to use a hardened nozzle to print with glow in the dark material. You will also need to be careful with using any AMS style setup as well.

Do I need a larger nozzle?

No! This material will print fine with a 0.4mm nozzle.

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?

While the spool will spin great in the AMS, the material is abrasive and may lead to the gears and PTFE tube wearing out too quickly. Therefore we do not suggest using it with 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".
