This premium filament is designed to print like plastic but finish like real metal. The flexibility of this 1.75 PLA filament gives you versatility and durability for beautiful parts from most standard 3D printers.

Finishing Variety - The embedded carbon provides a beautiful matte black finish with a slight sheen, resulting in 3D prints with exceptional accuracy, finish, and performance! The carbon fibers give the surface a nice sheen and with layer heights under 0.1mm the layers blend into the texture and almost disappear. Printed parts using Carbon Fiber HTPLA can be shaved/carved with a sharp blade for a smooth finish.
