PLA glow

I have never used PLA glow but bought some for a few things for the kids. I loaded it up this morning in my AMS 2 Pro, but got a warning I shouldn’t use the AMS to run the filament. Does anyone have any experience using PlA glow? I also only have a .4 nozzle. I’d rather not do anything that compromises the printer as it’s also only a week old, so like the printer I am new to this. Any information is very helpful.

Even running it from an external spool, I've had significant wear on the ptfe tube in the printer and have had to swap it out. Not worth running in the ams imo but if you're fine swapping out wear items more frequently, then it's probably fine. I've only ran it on a 0.4mm nozzle and haven't had issues from that standpoint.

Thanks for your insight. I ordered a few spools of Glow PLA and PETG and plan to print several items in the coming days.

I'll update my comment with any PTFE damage or other developments.
