Why does filament not stick to the glass?
(midwest.social)
You can see where around corners and even some straight runs it is peeling up. I'm running first layer at an agonizing 15 mm/s. Using hatchbox pla filament, just dried in dehydrator. 200° nozzle and 70° bed. The glass is freshly cleaned with soap and water, I just did several atomic pulls, I've trammed at different heights using a feeler gauge, and absolutely nothing is working. Any one have any ideas?
Hair spray is the way
Yeah I was doing that for a bit but I hate cleaning it off the plate. I should have never switched to borosilicate 😂
buy a cheap spray / spritzer, fill it with IPA, saturate the hairspray before paper toweling it off. You may have to take two passes to get it right. You can get away with a pretty good layer of the the hairspray, so I usually just touch up the bed with a spray between builds and clean after maybe 10 or something...
Glass cleaner also works very well for removing most of the glue. Let it soak for a little and then use a scraper to remove the glue
