Review on IC3D Green 1: Unleash the Power of Eco-friendly Printing by Saul Rivera

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beautiful true red color and excellent weather resistance

I bought this yarn for an outdoor project. This filament meets all the requirements. Heat and UV resistance: A+. At this point it has been around 6 months since I hung some of the prints outside and they hold up beautifully to wind, water, sun and heat. There is no sign of degradation or discoloration. Colour: A++. There are very few true red filaments. The color of most of the filaments is orange-yellow, but the luster and intensity of the IC3D filaments are striking. I think I've only used Hatchbox PLA Red and IC3D ABS Red filaments so far. Printability: B+, difficult to stick to build plate, but possible. There's a learning curve you're reluctant to master. Overhangs: A+, very good, better than white ABS IC3D, maybe red dye improves overhang ability? Remove support: A-. Good but not as good as IC3D White ABS. Surface quality: A+. Very intense and beautiful color, smooth and soft to the touch. Excellent quality. However, the only reason I don't give it a ++ is because the surface color becomes dull when sanded.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some bugs
