General printing guidelines *

Nozzle size: ≥ 0.4mm

Layer height: ≥ 0.2mm

Experience level: Beginner

Print temp: ± 215 - 235° C *

Fan speed: 50-100%

 

Heat bed: ± 0 - 60° C

Enclosure needed: No

 

*) Above displayed settings are meant as guidance to find your optimal print settings. These ranges in settings should work for most printers, but please do feel free to experiment outside these ranges if you think it is suitable for your printer. There is a lot of different type of printers, hot-ends and printer offsets that it is extremely difficult to give an overall one-size-fits-all setting.

*) If blobs/lumps form around the nozzle then your print temperature is too high.

Post processing MetalFil - Classic Copper

Brushing and/or sand grinding

Once printed MetalFil - Classic Copper objects can very easily be brushed with a brass brush or sanded with fine-grit sandpaper. By brushing and/or sand grinding your printed object you will brush/shine up the high concentration of copper powders.

Build-in white polish feature

After being brushed and/or sanded MetalFil - Classic Copper will reveal its white polish feature. A very thin white layer/haze on your object will now allow you to easily polish your 3D print into a beautiful copper object.

Professional polishing with a rotary tumbler

Post-processing a MetalFil - Classic Copper 3D printed object with a rotary tumbler will make your FDM 3D printed object indistinguishable from genuine copper casted objects.

Patina post-processing

You can create several patina effects on MetalFil - Classic Copper printed objects in just one day time. With an ammonia and soda treatment you can for instance easily create a beautiful ancient green/blue weathering effect on your copper object.

Waxing and coating

After every above-mentioned post-processing measure, you can always wax or coat your printed object to get an incredible shine effect. Waxing can be done with products such as beeswax and for coating one can think about products such as XTC-3D.

Abrasiveness

Please be aware that MetalFil filaments contain a very high concentration of metal powders, which have an abrasive nature. In general, these metal powders will accelerate the nozzle-wear of brass nozzles, much faster than unfilled filaments. We recommend using nozzles from stainless steel or other hardened alloys.

Nozzle cleaning

When printing with filled/composite filaments it is recommended to clean your nozzle immediately after printing by feeding 15-20cm PLA filament through your nozzle. This will make sure that any potential fillers are flown out of your nozzle. It is even better to use glow in the dark PLA as the extremely hard phosphorous particles are much more likely to scrape out residual waste from your nozzle.

One of my favorites because it doesn't sting my eyes
Style: SPF 50
This was my first time purchasing this from Amazon though I've bought this product elsewhere before. This is a sunscreen I come back to because I can use it on my body and it works relatively well on my face as well. It is hydrating and can give a matte-ish looking finish although on my face I'd say it leaves more of a dewy look because I put moisturizer on prior to applying. I've seen a few reviews mention there is pilling when applying to the face and while I've had that happen it's normally only during the day when I reapply. I think that first thing in the morning I don't really have that issue because of the moisturizer I put on before- I let the moisturizer soak in a bit before going in with the sunscreen. My favorite thing about this sunscreen is that it doesn't sting my eyes, I've worn it out on 90+ SoCal heat and it has not stung my eyes- there's been numerous sunscreen I like on my face but don't repurchase because even mid-80"s heat causes them to run and both sting and blur my vision. As for my giving this a 4 rather than a 5 it is because it leaves a mild white cast after I apply it norming and reapplying throughout the day. The mild white cast does eventually go away but it does take some time, though that is the one downsides I am glad that I'm at least not forced to sport a ghost-ish face all day. In all honestly, the cast is only mild when compared to others like the New "Sheer" Bluelizard SPF 50 face lotion, among others. I'm a little jealous of others who say they don't have a white cast at all but different products react differently with different people so I know it might just be a "me thing." Overall this is one of the sheer and non-tinted sunscreens I am happiest with and will repurchase again as needed unless I stumble onto that unicorn 50 broad spectrum SPF, cast free, no eye burning/ irritating, and reasonably priced and sized sunscreen =)

My new favorite
Style: SPF 30
Non-greasy, doesn’t cause irritation to my sensitive skin or cause breakouts, good sun protection, holds up to sweat, smells terrific, fair price. I just wish there were multiple spf options. I have already bought more.

Protección efectiva y aroma tropical delicioso
Style: SPF 50
Se ha convertido en mi bloqueador favorito. Llevo meses usándolo y no solo cumple con su función de protegerme del sol, sino que deja mi piel suave, hidratada y con un aroma riquísimo que me transporta directo a la playa. Tiene una textura ligera que se absorbe rápido, sin dejar esa sensación pegajosa o pesada como otros protectores solares. La uso tanto en la ciudad como en la playa, y me ha protegido perfectamente, incluso con exposiciones prolongadas al sol. Además, no me ha causado brotes ni irritación, lo cual valoro muchísimo porque tengo la piel un poco sensible. Otro punto a favor es que deja un brillo bonito en la piel, como un glow saludable, pero sin verse grasosa. ¡Y el olor! Ese toque a coco y flores tropicales me fascina. Siento que estoy de vacaciones cada vez que la aplico. Definitivamente la seguiré comprando. Es efectiva, huele delicioso y cuida mi piel. ¿Qué más se puede pedir?

Great sunscreen!
Style: SPF 50
This sunscreen is a very affordable price, and it is very matte on the face, leaves almost no white cast, and isn't oily at all on my combination skin. It works great under makeup too. I use this daily after my moisturizer, and its super lightweight. Great affordable option for oily skinned people.

Don’t buy
Style: SPF 50
I love Hawaiian Tropic but this product is terrible. It smells good, but it makes you super white and is hard to rub in. Imagine rubbing glue between your fingers when it’s dry, that’s the kind of white residue left all over you. Wouldn’t buy this specific Hawaiian Tropic product again. Stick to the basic products they offer
