Review on Vibrant NEON Color 3D 🖨️ Printer Filament - KODAK Nylon 6 by Joel Young

Revainrating 4 out of 5

You should get good results dry with this nylon. Good value for money!

Good print quality after drying. There was still a vacuum in the metalized pouch and the filament was still damp when I unwrapped it. Look at the photos. The cloudy part was printed with filament straight from the bag. I heard the filament when printing. I dried the filament on a roll in my oven on a warm setting for two hours and printed the part that isn't cloudy in the photos. After drying it is MUCH BETTER. I paid $17 for a 750g reel which is not bad at all for nylon. I bought the pack on a roll after seeing the print results after drying. A metalized bag is practically useless as the vacuum will bend the zipper. Grab a few large bags of silica gel desiccant and heavy ziplock bags, dry this filament and store with plenty of desiccant, or prepare to dry before each print. Prints well at 245°C extruder temp, no fan, 60°C bodyless bed with Ender 3 V2 glass platform glue stick. Good adhesion of the layers after drying. Makes durable flexible parts. Very slight deformation but stuck to the bed.

Pros
  • Additive manufacturing products
Cons
  • Very expensive
