Amber PEI Sheet 3D Printer Build Surface 225mm x 145mm Ultem 1000 Build Surface for Flashforge Creator Pro, CTC3D, Wanhao Duplicator 4, QiDi 3DP, Makerbot Replicator 2x

Purchase this to replace the blue pad for the FF Creator Pro. Also purchased a sheet of borosilicate glass to apply it to: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WW58DXW/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0. The combination of the two is phenomenal. Just remember to level your build plate close. You need that first layer squish for a solid grip. After that, it's home free. Using Hatchbox ABS at 230C on the nozzle, 105C on the HBP, turned off cooling fan. No edge curl at 100% infill. Been using for a about 3 days straight no issues. Will be trying PLA soon, then will experiment from there. I'll try to post updates with settings when I can.

I print almost exclusively in ABD and this is not all that great. Sometimes it works, sometimes it's worthless. I think it's back to old reliable. The slurry is a paint to mix up but it always works. I'd rather waste 15mins getting everything just right than half the afternoon with failed prints.

The backing is already applied, but the sizing falls out of spec by a few mm, which when you're squeezing the last few mm out of your bed, might be missed.

I have been using the blue build surface that came with my FF, it was ok but need to replace very fast and getting chip easily. Upgraded to glass and with hair spray and glue, it still warp when I print larger object with longer print for ABS, not mentioning it need to clean up every time. This Pei is just perfect, no need to prepare, it just work as it and much easier to install compare to glass plate. I am very happy to found out it solution from YouTube. I did sand the pei since most people said it work better if sanded, but it seem like it work good without sanding.

I was using glass and it worked well but it broke and nearly stabbed myself..... I decided to get this item and now I don't have fear of removing a print from the bed. This item is a wonderful first layer is printer eye candy, goes on smooth and keeps the print on. So glad I switched to this.

Simple and quick upgrade for 3d printers that saves a ton of time between prints. Sticks well and prints pop right off after cooling, which leads to less time readjusting bed levels.

This really helps with ABS adhesion though it does nothing for PLA. With ABS you can print many pieces without using a slurry or glue, however with larger parts warping and delamination are still an issue.

Works great so far. best build surface i have tried yet.
