Bambu supertak with tpu?

Hey just wondering whether anybody has used the new supertak with tpu? Wondering whether it damages the bed or not and is heat required?

Any advice would be :+1:t2:

Bambu Lab specifically state it is only for use with PLA & PETG.

Given they wish to sell things to as many people as possible, it doesn’t seem likely they would leave out recommending TPU as well to increase sales.

They don’t.

I wouldn’t recommend it.

But don’t let this answer discourage you if you’re the daring type. After all, it’s your printer, your time, your money… so if you feel like doing it, by all means, go for it…and, btw, do let us know how it went.

I didn’t say do not do it, I said I wouldn’t recommend it.

Should you @auzzyboy feel like a gamble, I would also like to know the outcome. I am just not willing to nose-dive into something Bambu Lab have said would not be wise.

I mean you still have the other side so it’s not going to completely ruin the plate.

I rather think that you’re going to get more than you’ve bargained for… but to quote myself:

…for you and your machine.

Bambu specifically said that the plate should not be used to print TPU, as it will damage the plate.

UPDATE - I tried this with a tiny print in the corner and its sticks far to well to the point where it near impossible to remove… I got away with it because i printed something really small but tpu on the supertak it not advised as this will easily damage your bed. :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:
