Additional information

* Please consider the use of a hardened steel nozzle when printing with MT-BRONZE .
The bronze powder inside makes the filament abrasive and will result in fast wear of regular brass nozzles.

Storage

Cool and dry (15-25˚C) and away from UV light. This enhances the shelf life significantly.
