Prusament PLA Blend Oh My Gold 1kg (NFC)

Product Description

Prusament PLA Blend Oh My Gold 1kg (NFC) is a top-tier PLA filament manufactured directly by Prusa Research. It is a special "blend" mixture with a metallic / pearlescent effect in a luxurious gold shade, which is ideal for aesthetic and representative prints. The filament is wound on the new Prusament spool with an NFC tag according to the OpenPrintTag standard, which allows the printer or a mobile application to read material information directly from the chip.

PLA is the most widespread material for FDM 3D printing thanks to its very easy printing, low shrinkage, and excellent surface appearance. This Oh My Gold variant is particularly suitable for models where you want to achieve a distinctive, "premium" look – awards and trophies, statues, chess pieces, decorations, product packaging, logos, or design prototypes.

Key Features

• Premium PLA blend in Oh My Gold shade – attractive gold color with pearlescent / metallic effect
• Integrated NFC tag (OpenPrintTag) – the printer recognizes the material and loads parameters directly from the spool
• High diameter precision – 1.75 mm with a tolerance of ±0.03 mm for blends
• Easy printing – minimal warping, high dimensional accuracy, suitable even for beginners
• Suitable for small and large prints – low thermal expansion, good shape stability
• Hard but more brittle material – sharp details, less suitable for mechanically stressed parts
• Clean and consistent production – in-house filament extrusion at Prusa Research / Prusa Polymers
• Multi-material ready spool – thinner spool profile, easier use in MMU and multi-color systems

Typical Applications

• Design and decorative models – statues, busts, figures, cosplay accessories
• Awards, trophies, plaques, medals – representative and "luxurious" look thanks to the gold color
• Advertising and presentation models – logos, signs, stands, promotional items
• Product prototypes – packaging, covers, concepts that do not need high temperature or mechanical resistance
• Home decor models – vases (single wall), ornaments, candle holders, design accessories

Print Settings (Manufacturer Recommended)

• Nozzle temperature: approx. 215 °C
• Bed temperature: 50–60 °C
• Recommended print surface:
  • smooth PEI sheet
  • textured PEI sheet
  • satin PEI sheet
• Fan: 100 % (typical for PLA, according to printer profile)

Before printing, make sure the print surface is clean and degreased (isopropyl alcohol, or dish soap water). This guarantees reliable first-layer adhesion.

PLA Blend Material Properties

• Easy to print – suitable even for first 3D printing experiences
• Low warping – ideal for larger models
• Very high-quality surface – smooth, aesthetic, with a distinctive color effect
• Hard but rather brittle – less flexible, may break when bent
• Lower temperature resistance – not recommended for use in hot environments (car in the sun, etc.)
• Difficult sanding – hard material that easily overheats locally and melts during dry sanding

Working with NFC (OpenPrintTag)

New Prusament spools are equipped with a fully rewritable NFC tag based on the OpenPrintTag standard:

• stored data about material type, color, and recommended parameters,
• works offline – the printer/reader does not need cloud access,
• cross-ecosystem compatibility – open standard, suitable also for other manufacturers,
• can be read using, for example, the Prusa mobile app.

Thanks to this, a compatible printer can automatically set the corresponding filament profile and minimize errors caused by incorrect configuration.

Recommendations for Beginners

• Start with the default Prusament PLA profile for your printer (e.g., in PrusaSlicer)
• Observe recommended nozzle and bed temperatures – 215 °C / 50–60 °C
• Always check the first layer (height, adhesion); for PLA, this is the key to trouble-free printing
• To achieve the best possible appearance of the gold effect, choose a rather lower layer height (0.1–0.2 mm)
