Paint Picker is now Hobby Supermarket. Same site, same prices, same shops.
PLA is the default filament for printing terrain, scenery, bases and props. It prints at low temperatures on almost any FDM printer without an enclosure, barely warps, and holds crisp detail - and once primed it takes acrylic paint like any plastic kit. It is stiff rather than tough, and it starts to soften at around 60 °C, so a PLA print left in a hot car can sag. PLA+ and Pro lines trade a little of that ease for toughness; matte PLA hides layer lines under a thin coat; silk and specialty PLAs (marble, wood-fill, glow, metallic) are for display pieces you may not paint at all.
Nearly every spool here is 1.75 mm; the few 2.85 mm ones say so in their name. Other materials: PETG filament, TPU filament, or every filament.
3142 PLA products read and admitted; 822 priced in US dollars at the shops we track, listed first.

| PLA | PETG | |
|---|---|---|
| Printing | Easiest: lower temperatures, little tuning, prints on almost any machine | Hotter nozzle and bed, strings more, likes a slower first layer |
| Strength | Stiff but brittle - thin parts snap | Tougher - flexes before it breaks |
| Heat | Softens at around 60 °C | Holds its shape to around 80 °C |
| Detail and sanding | Crisp detail, sands cleanly | Slightly softer detail, gums up when sanded |
| Painting | Primes and paints like a plastic kit | Glossy surface: use a primer made for plastics |
| Best for | Most terrain, scenery, bases and display pieces | Pieces that get handled, packed or left somewhere warm |
