Light Seeps Through
Transparent Red PETG Filament — AzureFilm
With transparent red PETG filament from AzureFilm, light magically seeps through your designs, giving prints a genuinely see-through red finish rather than just a tint.
Because it’s built on the same base as PETG Original, it prints just as easily — so going transparent and coloured doesn’t cost you any reliability.
Transparent, See-Through Effect
Since light passes through in a genuine red tint, prints look distinctly different from solid-colour PETG.
Easy to Print
Because it’s built on the PETG Original formula, it prints just as easily, with no extra learning curve.
Odourless
Since it doesn’t produce a strong smell while printing, it’s comfortable to use indoors.
No Enclosure Needed
So it works well on open-frame printers, not just enclosed ones.
Water and Chemical Resistant
Because it holds up against moisture and common chemicals, it suits parts that need to survive real-world conditions.
UV Resistant
Since it resists UV degradation, it’s a strong option for parts that’ll spend time outdoors or near sunlight.
Colour Meets Clarity
What Makes Transparent Red Different
Transparent Red is built on the same PETG Original formula, so it keeps the strength, temperature resistance and ease of printing PETG is known for. What changes is purely visual — instead of a flat, solid red, light passes through the print in a genuine red tone.
Because of that, it suits projects where light and colour need to work together — things a solid-colour filament, or a purely clear one, can’t do on its own.
What Can You Print with Transparent Red PETG?
Since it combines colour, clarity, and outdoor durability in one filament, it fits a wide range of projects.
Printing Recommendations
| Setting | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Nozzle Temperature | 220–240°C |
| Bed Temperature | 80°C |
| Build Surface | Glass bed, PEI sheet, Kapton, or blue tape with 3Dlac spray |
| Enclosure | Not required — prints well on open-frame printers |
Since ideal temperatures can vary between printers, treat these as a starting point rather than a fixed rule.
Getting the Clearest Possible Print
Because layer lines scatter light more than a smooth surface does, a few small adjustments can noticeably improve how see-through your finished print looks.
- Lower layer heights reduce visible layering, so light passes through more evenly
- Slower print speeds on outer walls give a smoother, clearer surface finish
- A light sanding and clear coat (or vapor polishing, if you’re set up for it) can further improve transparency after printing

Transparent Red PETG Filament — FAQ
Is this the same as your solid red PETG?
No. This is fully transparent with a red tint, so light passes through cleanly, which is quite different from a flat, solid-colour red PETG.

No. Since it’s designed to print well on open-frame printers, an enclosure isn’t required.
Does it smell while printing?

Can I use it for outdoor parts?
Yes. Because it’s UV, water, and chemical resistant, it holds up well to sun and weather exposure over time.
Is it as strong as regular PETG?
Yes. Since it’s built on the same PETG Original formula, it keeps the same strength and durability — only the colour and clarity change.
