True Gold PCTG PRO: finish and uses
True Gold v2 combines a golden hue with a metallic-looking finish. Consider it for decorative models, display pieces, props and projects where a gold appearance is part of the design. Made in Indiana, USA.
Lighting, viewing angle, surface geometry and print orientation affect the appearance of the finish. Compare a printed sample under your intended lighting.
Indicative color reference: #C28A54, attributed to Filamentcolors.xyz and not independently verified. A flat hex reference cannot represent metallic sheen; screens and print settings also affect perceived color.
Printing True Gold PCTG PRO
Published product-specific nozzle temperature: 240–265°C. Heated bed: 60–70°C. These are the ranges listed for True Gold, rather than the settings used on many other PCTG PRO colors. Adjust for your printer, build surface and part geometry.
An existing profile can be a starting point, but test rather than assuming every setting transfers unchanged. Tune temperature, cooling, flow and retraction for your setup using this product’s published temperature ranges.
Functional performance
PCTG PRO is a toughness-focused option for functional prints. Match your design and printing setup to the expected loads and operating conditions. Chemical, oil and grease compatibility depends on the substance, concentration, exposure time and temperature; test a representative part for your application.
Quality and specifications
