REFLECT-o-LAY is an exciting new filament from the creator of RUBBERLAY, MOLDLAY, LAYBRICK, and more! We are proud to be the only US reseller to offer the latest creation from inventor Kai Parthy.
REFLECT-o-LAY is a flexible reflective filament made with the same retro-reflective pigments used in safety vests and bike reflectors. Kai has infused the filament with millions of these reflective pigments, causing the material to reflect incoming light back towards the viewer. As with reflectors and safety vests, the effect is most prominent in darkened areas when light is shown directly on the object.
Questions
Product No. M-PDN-VRFE - can you tell me how much is in the bundle? It is 1.75mm and how much is the weight? Compare to 1 kg on the rolls. Considering the expense of product, I will need to know what me yield will be before purchasing
Is this filament suitable for printing bicycle headlight reflectors? I want to make a replacement reflector for a flashlight so that the light has a focused beam like an STVZO bicycle headlight.
I'm having feeding problems. I have a Prusa i3 MK3. I've set all of my print moves speed to 10mm/s max and max volumetric speed of 10mm3/s. It seems like it's so flexible, it doesn't push into the heat chamber for the extruder. I've tried running the fans to keep the upper chamber cool, but that didn't help. Any suggestions or further details I could give?
I'd like to incorporate this in part of a phone case - does this contain metal? I don't want to impede wireless charging (and is a bigger priority for me), but it'd also be awesome if it could be easier to find if I drop it at night.
Does this come with a wheel and if not can you print it without the wheel?
Does this material have adequate certification to ensure the quality of reflection?
Do you have a material safety data sheet for this product?
What kind of printer works best with this filament? I’m looking for a printer that can use multiple filaments.
I used A CR104S to print the reflect-O-Lay. After a rough start, I was able to get it running, but at a really slow speed. I also adjusted my extruder. Before I had the stock extruder parts, now I installed the aluminium one. Whit this one, the filament doesn't get stuck anymore at the extruder. I print now @10mm/s What is the speed U Use? Are you planning on making a non flexible Reflective filament? Is there a way to coat this material without removing the reflective ability. (Hair spray or something like that?) Thanks for the response
Can be used with 0.4mm nozzle or wider nozzle is needed?
Would this material be suitable for outdoor use, like ABS (i.e., how well does it stand up to UV)? My first thought was to print replacement mailbox numbers.
Reflect-o-lay contains metallic particles?
How much is the density of Reflect-o-lay?
Can Reflect-o-lay be printed as an inlay in a PLA print? Will it adhere to the PLA? For example printed as a word inlaid in a key fob. I'll be using a Prusa i3 MK2 with the Multi Material upgrade. Also - how is reflect-o-lay on a PEI bed? Does it adhere similar to PLA? ... or will it stick insanely, hard to remove, like other flexibles?
What Materiel does this bond best with for dual color printing
What is the print temperatures. This is very intriguing
How Flexible is this material? Is it as flexible as Ninja-flex type materials or is it more rigid? I am looking for something mostly rigid and able to be sanded/ground after printing, that retains a small amount of flexibility. does this material fit that?
I'm worried that the pigment might be abrasive to nozzles - has anyone checked this?
What is the minimum count of layers (or minimum thickness) needed to get the full retro-reflective effect? It isn't a cheap filament, so it makes sense to print the thinnest surface layer(s) possible on top of some other type of material...
The filament is opaque and so any layer or thickness will give the same amount of reflective properties.
