Got this as nothing else in stock
It does clog easy but if you manage to get the sweet spot , it can produce a good print , would normal use this and to be honest will not get again

This has worked without any problems at all in my Ender 3. Really good price, great product backed up with fast service and delivery. I like HobbyKing PLA so much I have ordered 9 more kilos. I recommend you try it one for yourself

Worked well. Similar to the filament that came with my Prusa 3D printer.

Best Metalic Silver PLA I ever used .... now sadly unaffordable for EU users.

Oct 09, 2019

I have bought and used this stuff plenty in the past. The shine it gives and the clean prints it produced were pretty much unique, even when compared to much more expensive filaments.
Sadly, HK has decided to stop selling this filament over the European Warehouse, it's now only available over the Global warehouse, making it absurdly expensive in terms of Transport and Taxes. Even more sadly, the stuff they sell at the European warehouse as alternative (Which is clearly the "Real" brand "Basic filament" series) doesn't hold a candle to the quality of the original.
VERY sad HK doesn't provide this filament over the European warehouse anymore. Not going to buy it at the current total prices.

Surprisingly good

The uploaded files are very close to the real thing, shinier than matte. Will be buying more in the future.

Strong & Rigid PLA

Aug 20, 2019

<Check out my image in the uploaded files tab>
Using this PLA for a custom NERF gun project.
This PLA is noticeably different from most as it is significantly more rigid/brittle.
Even though it is "brittle" it takes considerably more force to break than normal PLA.
However once it breaks, instead of peeling away like normal, softer PLA, it "snaps" off in small pieces.
Does not look convincing enough to be mistaken for metal (though i haven't tried sanding), still appears to be shiny silver plastic.
Pros:
+ Strong
+ Rigid (Printed piece does not flex as much)
Cons:
- Can be more difficult to work with when removing support material because of how strong it is. You end up with a lot of little sharp support material pieces on the floor to clean up. (They hurt more than Lego when stepped on!)
Print settings:
Bed: 55-60C
Extruder: 210C
If using carbon-coated glass bed, no adhesive required

Top stuff

HK's own PLA Metallick silver is so close to bare metal in color that it is great for models. Have been using it for 3D LabPrint planes with success.
