eSUN's PLA-Silk Magic is a 3D printing filament with a glossy, silk-like finish that blends two colors into a single strand. When printed, rotating the object reveals a continuous shift in color gradients. It's easy to remove supports, simple to print, and ideal for decorative items and collectibles.

If you want 3D prints that look more "alive" than a single solid color, then get to know eSUN PLA-Silk Magic, a 3D printing filament that combines two colors in one strand. It has a glossy, silk-like finish, and when light hits it or you rotate the piece to view it from different angles, the colors gradually shift and change, giving a luxurious and dimensional effect that goes beyond typical filaments.

What is PLA-Silk Magic?

PLA-Silk Magic is an evolution of standard PLA-Silk, developed by blending two colors during the manufacturing process of a single filament. This creates a unique bi-color gradient effect in the printed object. From one angle, it might appear gold, but with a slight turn, it transforms into pink or green, depending on the color combination chosen. Examples include Gold-Pink, Gold-Green, Black-Gold, Red-Blue, and many more pairs to choose from.

Key Features of PLA-Silk Magic

This filament has a smooth, glossy, silk-like finish and is as easy to print as regular PLA. It’s also easier to remove supports compared to many glossy materials and maintains toughness without becoming brittle. It's ideal for decorative items, gifts, collectibles, figurines, or any piece where aesthetic appeal is a key selling point.

Recommended Printing Settings

Print nozzle temperature should be around 190-230°C. The print bed should be set to 45-60°C. Keep the cooling fan at 100% and set the print speed to no more than 200 mm/s. Since this filament emphasizes the beauty of the surface finish, it's advisable to slightly reduce the outer wall speed to help achieve a more beautiful glossy and gradient effect.

Usage Tips

Because this filament has a glossy finish and a unique weight, it is recommended to use it with a filament dry box like the eBOX Lite to ensure smooth and consistent unwinding of the spool. This prevents the filament from twisting or colors from becoming distorted during printing. If designing your own models, you should reduce the overhang angles in the design to achieve the smoothest and most beautiful surface finish.
