YOOPAI Dual Color Silk PLA Filament, 1.75 mm, 1 kg, Gold/Silver

If your prints need more visual character than a plain surface provides, this filament pairs a two-tone gold-and-silver effect with a glossy silk finish. Its color shifts with the lighting and viewing angle, adding dimension to display models and décor. The 1.75 mm diameter suits most FDM printers designed for that filament size.

Key points

YOOPAI Dual Color Silk PLA is made with two-tone coextrusion, so the gold and silver hues blend across a printed object rather than appearing as a single flat color. The changing effect can make decorative models, small display pieces, and creative gifts more eye-catching without relying on a separate coating. Its shiny silk surface is designed to come straight off the printer with a polished-looking appearance, helping finished pieces stand out on a shelf or desk.

The filament has a stated diameter accuracy of ±0.03 mm, supporting consistent feeding and extrusion. Its enhanced formula is designed for stable printing, layer adhesion, and reduced shrinkage. Buyer feedback is varied: some highlight easy printing and good adhesion, while others report clogging or breakage. Color impressions also differ, and some buyers describe the appearance as more gray than gold. Several mention uneven winding, so it’s worth paying attention to spool feed as a print runs.

Practical tips

The spool is dried before packaging and vacuum-sealed with desiccant to help protect the filament from moisture. Keep it sealed until you’re ready to print, and store it with moisture protection between projects. The recommended nozzle range is 190–215°C, with a bed temperature of 30–60°C and a print speed of 50–80 mm/s. A slower speed can help bring out the silk surface finish, making it useful to adjust speed when appearance is a priority.

How to use it

Load the 1.75 mm filament into a compatible FDM printer and choose settings within the recommended temperature and speed ranges. For a two-tone decorative model, the shifting finish can add interest across curved surfaces and angles, a desk ornament or display figure is a practical example. The glossy surface is also suited to prints intended to be seen up close, where reflected light can emphasize the color transitions. For a project where the finish matters most, try a slower print speed within the recommended range.

Before you decide

What colors does the filament create? It is a dual-color gold-and-silver PLA with a finish that can shift with lighting and viewing angle. Buyer impressions of the color vary, with some describing it as gray rather than gold.

Which printers can use it? It works with most FDM 3D printers that accept 1.75 mm filament. Check that your printer uses this filament diameter before loading the spool.

What settings are recommended? The recommended nozzle temperature is 190–215°C, bed temperature is 30–60°C, and print speed is 50–80 mm/s. Slower speeds can help emphasize the silk finish.

Should you buy it?

Choose this YOOPAI filament when the visual finish is central to the project: its gold-and-silver shift and glossy surface are tailored to decorative prints, display models, and gifts. The 1.75 mm format and stated FDM compatibility make it a practical fit for many everyday printers, while the recommended settings provide a starting point for dialing in a polished-looking result.
