Bambu Lab PLA Silk+ Candy Red 1kg

Product Description

Bambu Lab PLA Silk+ Candy Red 1kg is a top-tier PLA filament with an enhanced formula to achieve intense silky shine while maintaining reliable mechanical strength. The Candy Red shade (hex code #D02727) is a rich, vibrant red color ideal for impressive decorations, figurines, gift items, and Christmas or holiday models.

Unlike standard "silk" PLA filaments, Bambu PLA Silk+ is optimized to combine an attractive appearance with excellent layer cohesion and less brittleness.
