Comment on the top filament is a regular filament that looks like every filament I have ever extruded. the bottom filament is a glossy gold extruded with the same nozzle. why is it so much thicker?

This could be “Die Swell” where something that’s cold extruded through a nozzle swells in size after it comes out the nozzle. While this is definitely an extreme example it is possible to get 2x expansion.

Check your temps and the temps of the new material.
