Three Colors in One Spool. Shine That Shifts with Every Angle.
Phrozen Silk PLA is an FDM filament designed for decorative prints and showcase models. Each spool combines three colors in a single filament, creating a silky, metallic, or pearlescent finish that shifts with the light and viewing angle. Available in Titan Flame and Blue Spirit, it’s ideal for figurines, props, and decorative pieces that look display-ready straight off the build plate.

Looks Polished Before You Even Paint It
Silk PLA gives your print a glossy, display-ready surface right off the build plate. It is made for decorative FDM prints that need to look good without heavy sanding, priming, or metallic paint.
- Silk-like gloss catches light on curves, edges, and raised details.
- Great for figurines, jewelry boxes, showcase models, and desk décor.
- Better suited to showcase pieces than standard matte PLA.

One Spool, Three Colors That Shift with Every Angle
Three colors are blended into a single1.75 mmfilament, creating a natural color-shifting effect in the finished print. No multi-color G-code, filament swaps, or extra nozzle setup required.
- Rotate the model to reveal shifting colors from different angles.
- Use a 0.2 mm layer height to make the gloss and color transition more visible.
- Keep print speed at or below 150 mm/s for a smoother, more even finish.

Pick the Color That Fits the Mood
Titan Flame and Blue Spirit each bring a different look to showcase models. One delivers a warm, metallic feel, while the other offers a cool, pearlescent blue finish.
- Titan Flame: ideal for armor, vintage décor, mechanical props, and warm metallic pieces.
- Blue Spirit: ideal for wings, crystal forms, space themes, and fantasy characters.
- Uses standard 1.75 mm filament and works with most desktop FDM 3D printers.

Prints You’ll Want to Show Off

For figurines, character models, and display props, Silk PLA gives the surface a more polished look before painting even begins. Let the silk shine stay part of the final look, then add color only where you want to highlight the details.

A Premium Finish for Everyday Prints
Vases, candle holders, storage boxes, and desk organizers all depend on surface finish. Silk PLA helps curves, edges, and raised details catch the light, so everyday prints look more like finished décor pieces.

Make Your Prints Look Better on Camera
When your work is meant to be sold, shared, or delivered to a client, first impressions matter. Silk PLA gives prints a more eye-catching finish from the start, making simple designs look more giftable, collectible, and ready to show off.

| PRINTING NOTES | Silk PLA is more sensitive to temperature and print speed than standard PLA. Before printing a larger model, start with a small calibration print. For a more uniform shine, keep print speed at or below 150 mm/s and avoid using standard PLA presets without tuning them first. Moisture can dull the finish and cause small bubbles during extrusion. If the spool has been exposed to humidity, dry it before printing. |
