FDE Filament for 3D Printing

[jaysinclair106]

Hi guys any one know the nearest Filament for 3D printing for FDE colour

Whose interpretation of FDE do you have in mind? My Magpul FDE items are a slightly different colour to FDE items I have from other brands and between those brands a lot of them are different too.

 

Do you have a Pantone or Hex colour code for reference?

 

I don't know which filament would be suitable but you're best off being clear so a recommendation doesn't have a greater colour mismatch than you'd like.

My FDE SCAR-H is about 4 different colours on its own. 😂

Magpul FDE is a match for either H-265 or H267 in cerakote dependent on the generation of the item in question.

 

The closest filament i've found, and I use closest loosely is Tinmorry Glass Fibre PETG in Sand, whilst its way off actual FDE, it works as a brilliant base for paint as it is matte by default, where a lot of filaments are inherently shiny, so you don't need to fuck about sanding it prior to doing primer and/or paint.
