Lately I’ve been using inland brand natural Pla. It prints so nice and I find that it adheres to the print bed really well. My go to filament brand used to be Amolen but some of these cheaper filaments have gotten so good in recent years.

I usually print Polyterra PLA at 210C but I had some issues with it lifting off the glass bed on my Enders. I never tried printing it below 205C and I have yet to try it on my Neptune 3 max so maybe the lifting issue won’t be a big deal with the PEI sheet bed. It does kind of feel like a terracotta texture which makes me want to try that red out now.

I wonder if I tried printing it at even lower temperatures if I would also get the delamination issue like you had.

It’s been a while since I bought from Polymaker and I don’t remember seeing that satin finish PLA+ line before but I’m definitely going to look into it. I also saw they are now offering dual color Polyterra matte filaments which is super cool.
