Discover a new level of creativity with Filadock Glow Rainbow Matte PLA+ — a premium 3D printing filament combining glow-in-the-dark performance, rainbow color transition, and elegant matte texture in one material.
Designed for makers who want more than ordinary filament, this material delivers impressive visual effects both under light and in darkness.
Whether you are printing decorative models, cosplay accessories, signs, toys, or display pieces, Filadock Glow Rainbow PLA+ brings your creations to life.
Create prints that continue to shine after the lights go out.
Filadock Glow PLA+ contains eco-friendly mineral luminescent powder that absorbs light energy and releases it gradually in darkness.
Compatible light sources include:
✔ Sunlight
✔ UV light
✔ High-power LED lighting
✔ Normal indoor lighting
Stronger light and longer exposure generally create brighter and longer-lasting glow effects.
Perfect for:
Safety is one of our top priorities.
Filadock Glow Rainbow Matte PLA+ uses environmentally friendly mineral glow additives and contains no radioactive substances.
Unlike outdated misconceptions about luminous materials, modern glow technology works by storing light energy rather than using radioactive reactions.
Our mineral-based glow powder is:
✔ Non-radioactive
✔ Stable and durable
✔ Safe for normal 3D printing use
✔ Environmentally conscious
This allows you to enjoy glowing prints with confidence.
Why choose between color and texture when you can have both?
Filadock combines rainbow color transition with a soft matte frosted surface.
The filament gradually shifts between colors during printing, creating naturally evolving color patterns throughout the model.
No painting required.
Every print becomes visually unique.
The matte finish provides:
✔ Reduced surface reflections
✔ Cleaner layer appearance
✔ Premium texture and feel
✔ Professional-looking results
Compared with glossy filament, matte PLA+ produces a more refined and modern appearance.
Ideal for display models and high-end prints.
Glow filament works by absorbing and storing visible or ultraviolet light.
For best glow performance:
After charging, your prints will gradually release stored energy as visible glow.
Filadock Glow Rainbow Matte PLA+ is optimized for modern high-speed FDM printers.
Compatible with most 1.75mm printers, including:
Enjoy:
✔ Stable extrusion
✔ Smooth printing
✔ Reliable layer bonding
✔ High-speed compatibility
Designed to keep up with today's faster printing profiles.
Because glow filament contains mineral particles, proper hardware selection and material care are important for achieving the best printing results.
Glow additives contain mineral particles that are more abrasive than standard PLA.
For best performance and longer printer life:
✔ Hardened steel nozzle recommended
✔ Suitable for long-term printing
✔ Helps reduce nozzle wear
✔ Maintains print consistency
✘ Long-term use with standard brass nozzles
Brass nozzles may wear faster when printing glow materials.
Due to the abrasive nature of luminous mineral additives, long-term use in AMS or automatic multi-material feeders is not recommended.
Potential wear may occur on:
For the best long-term printing experience, direct filament feeding is recommended whenever possible.
PLA+ materials can absorb moisture from the air after long-term exposure.
If the filament has been opened and stored for an extended period, moisture may affect print quality and lead to:
For the best printing performance, we recommend drying the filament before use if moisture exposure is suspected.
✔ Drying Temperature: 60°C
✔ Drying Time: 4–6 Hours
✔ Recommended Equipment: Filament dryer or temperature-controlled oven
Dry filament helps provide:
✔ Smoother extrusion
✔ Cleaner surface finish
✔ Better layer adhesion
✔ More reliable printing performance
After printing, store filament in:
✔ Vacuum bags
✔ Sealed containers
✔ Dry boxes
✔ Low-humidity environments
Proper storage helps maintain stable print quality and extends filament lifespan.
Glow brightness and duration depend on several factors.
For stronger glow performance:
✔ Charge under sunlight or UV light before use
✔ Longer charging creates brighter glow
✔ Thicker walls and higher infill often glow more strongly
✔ Darker environments improve visible glow performance
Glow intensity and duration may vary depending on charging conditions and model design.

No.
Filadock Glow Rainbow Matte PLA+ contains no radioactive materials. The glow effect comes from eco-friendly mineral luminescent powder that absorbs and stores light energy.
Sunlight and UV light usually provide the strongest charging performance.
Strong LED lighting also works very well.
Normal indoor lighting can charge the filament, although the glow intensity may be lower.
Yes, we recommend it.
Glow filament contains mineral particles that may wear standard brass nozzles over time.
A hardened steel nozzle provides better durability and long-term performance.
It is possible, but not recommended for long-term use.
Because glow filament is abrasive, extended use in AMS systems may increase wear on feeder components.
Direct feeding is recommended for maximum system longevity.
Glow duration depends on:
Generally, stronger charging produces brighter and longer-lasting glow effects.
Filadock Glow Rainbow Matte PLA+ is designed for creators who want their prints to stand out — not only with color and texture, but also with light.
Safe. Unique. Creative. Ready to Glow.
