I am having all kinds of issues with the gold. Any suggestions for settings?

I have had some challenges with it, I print at 210 and 60 bed, I recommend to go slow maybe 80% to 75% of your normal pla print speed. Also, and this sounds odd, I had some under extrusion till I loosened up my idler, it seemed to be a detriment to have the tension as tight as I would have it for normal pla. I am printing on a prusa mk3s for reference. What issues are you encountering?

Could someone share a setting for Ender-3 for light blue? I changed temperature from 200 to 215 but still got bad results.

Each printer can print at different temps regardless of brand. Some filaments print at different, even in the same brand. You just experiment a bit to you find the ranges your printer likes. Start by googling 'temperature tower' (or ask on Facebook forum for Ender 3). The temperature tower will start printing at something like 225C and go down to 180C. You can look at the results and see where that filament prints best. You may need to test again as you try different filaments (I have to print Inland filament at lower temps, for example).

Do the metallic style filaments (bronze, silver, gold) require a hardened nozzle?

No. These are bronze/silver/gold only in color, they have no actual bronze/silver/gold material in them. Print them like you would any other PLA.

Whats the difference between the "silk" pla and the normal pla?

Mainly it's shinier than regular PLA. It is softer and can produce stringing when regular PLA won't. I love Silk PLAs, but I've learned that it can't be used for everything. I think it's great for display pieces 🤘🤘

Love the color!

This is some of my favorite filament. I absolutely love the neutral color, without being a boring white. I would describe it more as a pearl white. I hope they keep making this forever because I'll keep buying it!The only real downsides are that the silk ones like this tend to be more brittle, and they have a very strong sweet smell while printing.

Good quality, fast delivery, good plate adhesion.

So far have used the white silk filament with good results at 205 C and 215 C. This filament is as good or better than the MakerBot brand filament and is quite a bit cheaper. Extrudes evenly with a slightly matte finish. This filament adheres very well to the MakerBot Replicator+ build plate which is an unheated bed. The rafts work well for me now.

Looks good but layer adhesion is an issue

This material works perfectly fine and looks like a actual pearl as it is more off-white than bright white. The only issue I found is that layer adhesion is not great. Would not use for mechanical parts and I bump up the hotend temp to help with adhesion.

Beige color

Hatchbox filament is great like always. This silk white is more of a beige off white color. Not pure white.

Great shiny off white

This is not a pure white and that was exactly what I was looking for. This filament has a nice pearly-shine to it and is really nice to print with, not a single thing to adjust, it's a great filament and I will buy another spool as soon as I'm done with the first which is probably going to be soon.

This stuff is neat!

Very neat sheen finish with some depth, a bit translucent. Reminds me of what a pearl finish should look like for sure. Zero stringing. No noticable printing issues.

Terrible Layer Adhesion at the recommended printing temperature

Hatchbox is my go to brand for PLA and I usually have excellent results. This Silk White is different: the layer adhesion is terrible at the recommended temperature. Prints look great but crumble in your hands. Printing at 230 seems to help a lot.
