I’ve probably purchased about 6-8 rolls looking for a good replacement for BambuLab’s PETG-HF. Can’t seem to find a good solid matte white replacement. Anybody had any luck?
Before comparing brands, I’d define what “replacement” means here: the same matte-white appearance, similar print behavior, or similar strength. I’d test small swatches on the same printer, nozzle, profile, and lighting, then record drying, adhesion, layer consistency, net price per kg, and spool or refill format. White shades can look very different even when the label matches. If you share your printer and nozzle, and whether the part is cosmetic or functional, the comparison will be much more useful.
Very good point! Looking for the same solid matte-white appearance. It’s been my experience that most filaments can be ‘dialed in’ to get acceptable print characteristics. Most filaments I’ve tested so far that say they have a matte finish are way too translucent. I have been making and selling products using Bambu Lab’s PETG-HF White since it came out. I need to maintain the same look and feel in order to be as consistent as possible with my products. So far I’ve tried Sunlu, IEMAI, Overture, JAYO, Kingroon, and Inslogic. I’ll be looking at Elegoo today and Voxel next week. I was hoping others might have found something that has the same look and feel. So far no joy…
sunlu high speed matte petg - i haven’t tried the white, but the grey is nice
No. The sunlu is cold white (slightly blue). Bambu was warm white (cream).
