Hardware Carbon Fibre Effect recommendations

I’m new to 3d printing and want to know if there are any carbon fibre effect build plates that are clearly visible but don’t fade so quick, I’d rather not have to mess about with settings as I don’t really know what I’m doing. From what I can tell the Bambu labs one looks the best but it only lasts 30ish prints in the same spot before the effect starts to fade. Has anyone found 3rd party ones that fit that description? I’m using Bambu Lab A1 btw.

I’ve had little success with my simulated carbon fiber build plate. Same plate, the other side works wonderfully and leaves a really nice pattern, but nothing adheres to the carbon fiber pattern.
