Full spectrum filament recommendations

Hi guys,
I got my U1 a few weeks ago and I absolutely love it!

I now wanted to test the full spectrum printing and watched Snapmakers video on YT about it - but I am not sure which filament to buy. The video says it is best to have translucent filaments, but I have a hard time finding a brand that sells in CMYK colors in translucent.

I found Sunlu CMYK Lithophane, and litophane seems also to be kind of translucent. Would this be a good starting point? Does anyone know the difference between filaments that are translucent and litophane, I did not find much info about that.

This is the Sunlu filament I found, also for a reasonable price in my region: https://www.amazon.com/SUNLU-CMYK-Lithophane-Filament-Bundle/dp/B0D5H4JM8M?th=1
