- For best color consistency, weigh your pellets using a kitchen or postal scale — do not estimate by volume
- Colors are approximate — results will vary based on your extruder temperature and source filament dye lots
Pro Tip – Double Pass for Best Results For low Mix Ratios
- For smooth, consistent custom colors we recommend pelletizing and extruding twice
- First pass blends the colors together into a single mixed pellet
- Second pass produces a fully homogenized, streak-free filament
- A single pass may result in slight color variation or streaking — this is normal for hand-mixed pellets
- Creality M1 and Filabot users will get the best results using the double-pass method

3D Printed Item Notice
- These pellets are made from PLA filament using a precision pelletizer
- Natural/Clear color will appear translucent — this is normal and indicates clean, dye-free material
- Color may vary slightly between batches due to source filament variation
- Intended for re-extrusion, filament making, or pellet 3D printing — not for food contact
