Perfect color I was looking for
"I designed and printed a set of drawers and shelf for the top of my desk under the monitor. I wanted to make inserts to slide into the drawer fronts that would match the color of my Ikea adjustable desk. It's a deep bluish gray color and I was looking everywhere for a color to match but nothing was even close. I never thought of checking 3D Fuel and the PCTG colors because I didn't need the strength. I was just using it as a decorative piece. I came here to get some more matte black PCTG for other builds and that's when I stumbled upon the Gunmetal Blue in the toolbox colors. As soon as I saw it, it hit me. . . my desk is Bosch Blue! Because of the lighting glare, my photos don't do justice for the desk color match. But you can see that the parts would match Bosch tools perfectly. With the big selection of newer colors added to the PCTG line as of late, I now no to check here more often because I do love to print with this stuff. It prints so easy and the finishes are always beautiful, not to mention the structural qualities when you need it. I love printing 3D Fuel PCTG!"

Iron Red PCTG Mickey Mouse & 49ers!
"Beautifully rich color! The Iron Red PCTG works great for my wife's Mickey Mouse collection, as well as my 49er stuff! I am presently transforming my Bambu Labs P1S over to a 49ers theme, and the wife wanted knobs on the kitchen cabinets that go with all her Mickey Mouse kitchen wares"

Durable, Clean, and Giveaway-Ready: Pro PCTG Deliv
"I printed a batch of giveaway bracelets using 3D Fuel Pro PCTG in Cobalt Blue and FDE, and it performed great. It prints as easily as PETG but feels tougher, with excellent layer adhesion and no cracking even when flexed. The Cobalt Blue is vibrant with a nice sheen, while the FDE has a clean, matte look that hides layer lines well. Stringing was minimal, and cleanup was quick, which made batch printing easy. Overall, it’s a reliable, durable material that’s perfect for functional prints that still look good."

Nice product, poor packaging.
"This is my second attempt with PCTG and 3-D fuel has made a great impression overall. This prints much better than the other brand I tried and they have so many great colors to choose from! Was a little bit disappointed in the packaging, two of my rolls had lost their vacuum seal. Obviously this is not in the world, but I’ve actually never had any other brand arrive without a good vacuum seal. (I mainly use Bambu and Sunlu)."

Custom Chainsaw Holder
"This is my second purchase of your product. I picked up the orange and ocean blue for a themed chainsaw holder a buddy requested. Printed fantastic, was able to get a great finish using pla support interface layer. The printed worked as advertised. Thank you."

"This stuff is so much fun. I just recieved a four spool order of the refuel in pctg. The first batch i got was a really cool purple with red and blue streaks in it when you printed it. This latest batch i got four spools. Two were somewhere between a titan grey and a carbon fiber black. The other two spools were a cross between a warm sunset yellow to a mango yellow orange. If you like printing with PETG. Give PCTG a try. I’ve tried a few other PCTG brands, 3D-Fuel’s PCTG is the best."

Nice color and glow!
"Very strong material and a pleasure to print with. Surface finish is very nice, like PETG, and it releases from the print bed easily but stays adhered perfectly during printing. If I need a strong, low warping, non-stringing, heat and impact resistant material, this is 100% my go-to. The peace of mind this material brings due to the increased durability for the products I print from it is worth the cost difference over PETG and definitely PLA, especially considering the other factors I listed."

Catibbean Blue has turned out to be one of my favorite colors!
"Caribbean Blue is a great color by itself and even better contrasting in a multi color print. Laid down very smooth the first time I loaded it in too. PCTG has quickly become one of my favorite materials to work with. It's simple to set up and the results are high quality in form and function."

Not transparent enough for easy color mixing
"First. this is a review of the bundle, not the quality of the filament. The filament in this set is not transparent enough to blend as well as I would have hoped when doing mixed color printing. (All had a transmission density TD level of below 4 on a BQ meter). I don't have issues with the filament color/printability itself, just how the bundle was setup with more opaque filaments. I hope a similar grouping that includes more semi-transparent options (TD 10+?) becomes available."

Beautiful and easy
"Decided to use it for the strawberries on the "diet" cake I printed for my mom's birthday. Totally overkill for the job, since its just a storage box, but it printed beautifully from the default Bambu profile. Used it straight out of the box and it's absolutely beautiful!"
