PLA Glow stands out due to its incorporation of a unique additive: luminous powder. This variant retains the familiar qualities of traditional PLA, including easy printing, high quality, and exceptional overall mechanical properties. What sets PLA Glow apart is its distinctive feature - it glows in the dark. This makes it the optimal selection for crafting luminous nameplates, logos, jewellery, and various models that require a captivating glow effect.

Bambu Lab 3D printer comes with a spool model. Print Spool Part 1&2 from the build-in files!
When you're finished printing, you will have a wide piece (1x), narrow piece (1x), spacing shim (2x).
Find the locator (a tiny block on the wide piece). Align it with the notch on the inner ring of the filament roll. Insert the wide piece into the filament roll.
Step 1. Insert the narrow piece and align the groove of each piece inside of the spool until it is pushed firmly into the wide piece.
Step 2. Once it is pushed firmly into the wide piece, rotate the narrow piece clockwise until it slides into place and you hear it lock.
Step 1. Make sure the spacing shim is installed inside the spool (under the triangle).
Step 2. Tear apart and pull out the plastic strips.
