Rainbow Silk PLA

Gremlin3D PLA Silk Rainbow

Add a rich, flowing finish to your prints with Gremlin3D PLA Silk Rainbow. Designed with a smooth silk sheen and deep, saturated colors, this specialty PLA creates shifting highlights across curves and surfaces for a premium decorative appearance.

Its improved toughness helps reduce cracking and breakage on thin or curved prints, making it well suited for vases, figures, lamp shades, decorative models, and other designs where both appearance and durability matter.

For the best silk finish, slower outer-wall speeds are recommended. Reducing outer-wall speed can help produce smoother, more consistent highlights across the finished print.
