Top questions answered

In this section, you can address common questions about our mystery color ABS+ filament.


Transition "Mystery" Color ABS+
Our transition color ABS filament is the same high-quality ABS filament that our customers trust but in "mystery colors." These varying colors are the result of our changeovers from one of our standard colors to another during the production of our filament and cannot be reproduced. While supplies last. Items are not returnable or refundable due to color.
Note: These are not a rainbow filament.  The color change in each spool will vary and be very gradual. 
*This product is limited to availability as we make changeovers. If you cannot add it your cart, we are sorry, but we are out of stock.ABS+ filament is a thermoplastic 3d printing filament.  ABS, which stands for Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene. Coex ABS + or ABS Prime is an engineering-grade material made from a higher-grade base resin which will provide an even stronger finished print than the standard Coex ABS filament.  ABS is used by a variety of manufacturing industries for parts requiring structural integrity and detail and is commonly used in rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing environments to test product impact resistance and durability.  This 3D printer filament comes in a variety of colors and is available in 1.75 and 2.85 MM in diameter, and comes in 500 g, 5 lbs, 15 lbs, and 1 kg.As opposed to PLA and PETG filament, ABS Prime is a bit more technical and may be more challenging for new 3D printing users, and requires the use of an enclosed 3D printer.  ABS is a stiff 3D printing material that will be impact and heat-resistant. Common applications for ABS include end-use tools, moving parts, and parts that must withstand high mechanical stress.

Technical Printing Guide - COEX ABS Prime
1. Material Notes

Keep filament dry - store properly and dry before use
If needed, dry at 75°C for 3 hours or more
Enclosure is necessary
Use Z-offset slightly higher than PLA (+0.05mm)
Enable "Avoid crossing perimeters" to reduce stringing
Consider using the "Wipe while retract" option
Enable "Slow down for small perimeters."
Print outer walls slower for better quality
Use a minimum layer time of 30 seconds for small parts

Consider using "Extra Prime Amount" after retraction

2. Temperature Settings
Bed Temperature: 80-100°C

Wash the bed often for good adhesion - Use dish soap and rinse thoroughly to remove oils
Use bed adhesion products if necessary (gluestick, WELD3D)
Use brim for tall or large prints
Keep the ambient temperature stable

Extruder Temperature: 245-265°C

5. Retraction Settings
IMPORTANT: Set travel speed to the maximum your machine allows (200-500mm/s). Faster movements reduce filament oozing time, minimizing stringing.

7. Troubleshooting Guide



 Problem
Solution


Irregular extrusion

1. Dry the filament
2. Check the extruder
3. Reduce speed



Poor adhesion

1. Dry the filament
2. Use adhesive
3. Adjust the first layer



Stringing

1. Dry the filament
2. Adjust retraction
3. Increase travel speed
4. Check temperature




 
PLEASE NOTE: These printing parameters are initial recommendations based on our experience. They may need adjustment depending on your specific 3D printer, environmental conditions, and the geometry of the part you are printing. Use these settings as a starting point and fine-tune them according to your specific needs.
