Printing tips
• Drying conditions: 55°C for 8 hours. Store in a dry environment after use. Dry the material before use if it has absorbed moisture.
For more details, refer to: Filament drying guide on WIKI .
• It is not recommended to use a 0.2 mm nozzle . For optimal results, use a 0.4 mm nozzle instead.
• The model's brightness will fade over time , but short-term exposure (about 2 hours) to ultraviolet light or sunlight can revive the glow. However, prolonged or frequent exposure can accelerate the aging of the PLA.
• Not suitable for AMS Lite: Using AMS Lite may result in high filament resistance and increased risk of feeding problems. Consider alternative methods, such as drying before use, for better results.
