This stuff is the strangest ive ever used. last time this stuff came around in a deal, i got 2 of a few different colors and pretty much 1 roll works fantastic and the other will not stick to itself no matter what setting i tried. tried drying the rolls in case there was moisture but didnt fix it. So if you get good rolls, it prints amazingly well, if you get a bad roll there is 0 layer adhesion even taking the temps up to 250. even tried slowing the printing but it didnt work.
I like the SOLEYIN I've tried so far but a few important notes. It does NOT stick well to other PLAs, so it's really weak at the layer transition and it sticks hard to the textured PEI plate from Bambu to the point that I ripped off a section of the bottom layer removing a big print from the plate.

Same. I take care to take off my prints now after also ripping my first. I did do a transition to another PLA when my roll was running out, didn't seem to notice any difference
Otherwise cheap and good stuff. Bambu mini, textured pei plate, default generic PLA settings.

I bought on the last deal. Does not stick to other PLA as others have mentioned. My multi-color prints can be snapped apart at the color changes. I run this using the Bambu PLA Basic setting and I get good results with that. If they had blue on sale, I'd buy it

Did you end up finding a solution to sticky plate?
I'm going to copy and paste what I've said before as it bears repeating with this crappy filament:
This is one of the most inconsistent filaments I've ever had the displeasure of using. The filament itself has a extremely rough texture, like dry pasta, not smooth at all so it doesn't glide very well through PFTE tubes. Some colors leave a white residue on your build plate, some don't. Some adhere better then others at the same temps. All of it has to be dried out, a lot, just to print ok. I've printed with this on a Ender 3 v3 KE, a Ender 3 v3 Plus, and a Bambu X1C and had issues on all of them depending on color. Most other brands of "xxxx" filament whether it's PLA Basic or Matte or whatever have relatively similar or even the same settings even with different colors but not this stuff. I have run both flow rate and pressure advance calibrations on all 12 of my rolls and gotten 10 different flow rates ranging from 0.91 through 0.98 and 9 different pressure advances from 0.008 through 0.064 all depending on color. Anyone even slightly inexperienced should stay away and stick with PolyMaker, SunLu, Bambu, etc. The most consistent color, for me, has been Matte Grey followed by Ocean Blue and Matte Florite. The worst, by far, has been Matt Black, Gray, and Almond Purple. The others like Rosehip, Pineapple Yellow, Moonstone, etc are in between.
