This dual colour matte filament gives you the same two-colour effect as dual silk, but with a subtle, low-sheen surface that hides layer lines and sits naturally alongside furniture and home decor instead of drawing attention with shine.

Why Choose PLA Dual Matte Filament?

  • Two-tone matte finish for a clean, modern look
  • Soft, non-reflective surface that reduces visible layer lines
  • Prints at standard matte PLA settings, around 190–220°C nozzle and 50–60°C bed
  • Less prone to stringing than silk filament, making it more forgiving to print
  • Consistent extrusion and strong layer adhesion

What Our Customers Print With It

PLA Dual Matte is the pick when you want the two-colour effect without a shiny finish. Our customers use it most for display pieces, vases, and home decor prints that need to blend in with the room rather than stand out, along with props and product prototypes where a refined surface matters.

Printer Compatibility

Our 1.75mm PLA Dual Matte filament is compatible with Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality Ender, and most FDM 3D printers, delivering reliable results with standard PLA profiles. It also runs through AMS and multi-material units without issue.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does dual colour matte filament work?

PLA Dual Matte has two colours running side by side down a single strand, the same construction as our dual silk. Different faces of your model catch different colours, and depending on the angle the two colours can partially blend into a soft third tone, which is part of the effect rather than a defect. The matte surface also helps hide layer lines.

How do I get the best two-colour effect?

Orientation matters more than anything. We recommend printing a small test square first so you can see which faces get which colour, then rotating your model to place the colours where you want them. Dual colour filament suits smaller models best, unlike rainbow filament where larger prints show the effect better.

What settings do you use for your sample prints?

All the model photos on our listings are printed on Bambu Lab X1C, P2S and H2C printers using 3 walls at 0.16mm layer height, the same setup we use for our dual silk range.

What temperature does PLA Dual Matte print at?

Standard matte PLA settings, around 190–220°C nozzle with a 50–60°C bed. Unlike silk, there is no sheen to bring out, so there is no need to run it hotter. Matte is also less prone to stringing, which makes it one of the more forgiving dual colour filaments to print.

Does dual matte work with an AMS or multi-material unit?

Yes, it runs through an AMS fine and you can combine it with other filaments in multi-colour prints. One tip: the colour split stays consistent along our spools, but if the filament twists on its way to the printer, the colour sides on your model will swap around. Keeping the strand feeding consistently gives you a clean, well-separated result.

Dual Matte vs Dual Silk vs Tri Colour, which should I pick?

Dual Matte gives you the two-colour effect with a soft, non-reflective finish that suits home decor and display pieces where you do not want shine. Dual Silk has the same colour split with a glossy finish and stronger visual contrast. Tri Colour adds a third colour, but the colours blend together more, so individual tones are less prominent. If you want prints that fit in with their surroundings rather than catch the light, Dual Matte is the pick.
