Luminous red

Having a hard time finding this stuff, everytime I get it from a different supplier the stuff comes pink. Looking for red filament that looks red, and glows red, not looks pink and glows red. I tried 3Dprima and esun, both pink.

Thanks!!

It must be impossible to make a Real Red color filament ! ?? :(

Either that or all the filament Makers are Color-Blind ! ;)

Hi! What material are you using for 3d printing? I know some 3d printing materials that have a red filament for colors and finishes.

The problem is that all the filament they Call Red are Actually Pink. :(

Also, I got some recently that is supposed to be Wine-Red color and it's really a redish Brown :(
I would certainly Never drink Wine that is that Muddy ! LOL ;)

Hi , As a filament maker i can tell you glow in the dark red is possible to make but has a very weak glow intensity and duration. The best glow colors are the typical yellowish green & a light blue. The rest of the available phosphorescent pigments are not worthwhile for filament making.

I did make a excellent ruby red if you want just a nice intense candy looking red. Here's a pic

Mike, We have been trying to find a Dark-Red PLA ( like a blood Red )
Is there a reason no one makes that color ?

Or like the red on this car:

Well, I saw the Cherry-red and it does Not appear to be Dark enough for what we want. :(
It does look Less Pink than most though ! ;)
