Using this PolyTerra Gradient Matte PLA Filament is easy. First, make sure your 3D printer is compatible with this filament. You can apply a thin layer of glue stick on most printing surfaces. A heated bed isn't necessary, but if you want better results, you can set it between 40 - 50°C (maximum 60°C). When printing, take advantage of its high - speed printing ability on suitable hardware. As for support removal, it's engineered to break away easily from your prints. Remember, this filament is softer and more ductile than regular PLA, so handle it gently. Keep it in a dry place to maintain its quality. Although it's a bioplastic, its degradation rate is slow at ambient temperatures. Enjoy creating dynamic and unique 3D models with this great filament!
