Cookiecad - Mermaid Tri-Color Gradient PLA Filament (1.75mm, 1kg)

Bring the enchanting mysteries of the deep ocean straight to your build plate. Cookiecad Mermaid PLA transforms a beautifully shifting gradient into an aquatic fantasy. This premium specialty spool cycles gracefully through three stunning marine shades—rich purple, deep ocean blue, and vibrant sea green—before seamlessly shifting back through blue to purple, bathing your finished models in a smooth, high-gloss spectrum.

Master Your Mermaid Gradients

Because the color shift occurs gradually across the length of the strand, you can use your slicing setup to control exactly how this aquatic spectrum reveals itself on your models:

• Small Objects: Will print in a single, rich glossy tone—allowing you to harvest completely different looking colored parts out of different sections of the exact same roll.
• Large Objects: Will showcase a beautiful, seamless color cycle transitioning elegantly through the purple, blue, and green spectrum.
• Pro-Tip for Dynamic Fades: Want to capture the full Mermaid spectrum on smaller decorative items? Try printing multiple models simultaneously on your build plate, scaling up your object size, or increasing your infill density to pull more filament through the nozzle within a single layer height.

Why Choose Cookiecad Transition PLA?

• Flawless Aesthetic Transitions: Every stage of the color blend is carefully balanced. There are no dull, muddy transitions—just pure, vibrant oceanic hues that create eye-catching focal points on your desktop display models.
• High-Gloss Surface Finish: Features a high-sheen, wet-look glossy base that accentuates crisp geometries, dramatic curves, and organic figurines right off the bed, helping to naturally mask layer lines.
• Legendary PLA Reliability: Offers the absolute user-friendliness that makes PLA the industry standard—boasting ultra-low thermal shrinkage, excellent bed adhesion, and virtually zero corner warping.

General Printing & Optimization Guidelines

• Nozzle/Extruder Temperature: 190°C – 220°C (Standard PLA profiles work beautifully; printing slightly hotter can often enhance the rich, high-gloss shine).
• Heated Bed Temperature: 50°C – 60°C (Can also be printed on an unheated build surface treated with clean blue painter's tape or a quality bed adhesive).
• Part Cooling Fan: ON / High Speed (Essential for achieving pristine top layer fills, clean bridging paths, and sharp overhang structures).

Ideal for printing mythical sea creatures, whimsical aquatic decorations, custom organizers, and high-impact display models. Loving the ocean hues but want an extra layer of sparkle? Be sure to check out our Mermaid Elixir for this exact same palette infused with added iridescent shimmer!
