There are three models here. Two of them are just emblems. The other one is a keychain.

If you want to print these in two different colours as I did in this render,  and you don't have dual extruders and need to do a filament change, keep in mind the time between the two layers.

If the last layer before M600 sits around too long and cools down too much, the new colour will not adhere to the previous layer well, and eventually, they will break off. To overcome this:

  • Make the M600 process as quick as possible.
  • Print faster
  • Use higher layer widths. You can print this with a 0.6mm nozzle
  • Use lower layer heights.
  • Print in an enclosure
  • Increase the hot end temperature.

or…

Print it in ABS or ASA and then do a quick vapour smooth after. This will fuse the layers a bit better. But stop before losing detail. ABS and ASA can also be sanded well so that allows you to make the top layer nice and shiny. 

I used the emblem variations on the body of my car so ASA would be the way to go there if that's your idea.

But for the keychain, PLA is sufficient, as long as the M600 is executed quickly
