I tried several temps and settings and this filament is trash. It prints brittle and pulls off the bed. Avoid it. Maybe some printers do well, Im using a Qidi X max and Im not a beginner. Its on the reel very neatly, thats about the only positive. Id avoid this brand and its all now getting returned.

Update. 2nd roll. Seemed more forgiving and seemed to work ok. So 1 bad and 1 good. Ill test the third roll this week sometime and adjust accordingly.

So I bought this filament to teach a class and it has surprisedly, not glow at all. I do have to say, it is good filament. So I use it, as an off-white, but it is in no way glow in the dark. I made a student project and she tried it at home and confirmed my findings...I hope Ziro improves their product.

I just recently bought a Prusa Mini, and had some leftover white filament from using a printer in class. I was able to successfully print something with the white so I decided to change to the blue. It immediately jammed, I did some troubleshooting thinking it was my printer but I still had the same jamming issue. So I switched the filament back to the initial one and had no problems. I figured then that it had to be the filament.

Pros: pretty color, no adhesion problems, very smooth.

Cons: gums up fast inside my extruder, jams inside the PTFE tube

Easy to print with on different machines and the glow from blacklight is strong. Def buying more. Have the blue and yellow.
