Unique Glitter 3D Printing Filament

This is a fun thread, I was so excited to try it out! In normal light it looks like a natural transparent filament, which is definitely worth mentioning if you plan to print with it. But the glow in the dark is a great effect because it's all about the sparkle. Note that I used black lights for my photos - you really get the best glow effect with black lights as glitter doesn't last long on a charge. So far I have made two different prints. The first thing I tried was a vase (with inserts printed with a different glow-in-the-dark filament). I like how it turned out because it looks great in both normal light and black light. Then I tried the Ganesha imprint. It printed great (I've never had an issue with Amolene filament) but I don't think it's my favorite application due to the transparency of the filament. I could probably do more walls around the perimeter to make it look cleaner. But it might be something that I paint some details of the print with bright color. Still happy with it and again it looks great in any light. In general, there are two things to keep in mind: creating prints that work with transparency, and knowing that the charge isn't as strong as other luminous filaments. But if you have the right pressure and space for it, it can be better than other solid glowing filaments. I prefer it to the greenish hue of solid filaments during the day and the shine is just magical!
