Hi there, I was just wanting to get some quick answers about my Smooth PEI plate. Here are some of the question(s) that I have been coming across. How much glue should I apply to the bed itself? Is there a particular way to apply it so that it is even on all sides of the print bed? Should the software work the same other than having a smooth rather than having a textured?
These are some of the questions that I have been wondering for a little bit.
The smooth PEI sheet better without glue. I believe that the glue is meant for easier project removal, not to hold it down better.
Ensure that the PEI plate is completely clean, free of any oils and finger prints, and it will hold incredibly well.
To release, let it cool off completely, or take the plate off and place it on something cold to speed up the process. PEI is designed to release when cold. Sometimes I pour cold water over the back of the sheet to cool it off faster.
