Printing this material
- Abrasive — Contains fibre, mineral or metal filler that wears brass nozzles quickly. A hardened or ruby nozzle lasts; a stock brass one may not survive a spool.
True of PLA generally. Follow Protopasta’s own guidance for this spool.
As with all of Proto-Pasta's metal composites, this is designed to be post-processed with various items and processes that I don't have. What is represented here is the base color of the filament after printing, but before finishing. Take a look at Proto-Pasta's website to see what this filament should look like when finished appropriately.
