Doesnt print colours 'clean'?

First print with the A1 and I get colours that are not ‘clean’ on the first layer.
Anything I have done wrong?
How can I correct this?
Thanks

give a few passes with a heat gun (not for too long or too close) and those bed marks should go away :wink:

One question… did you let it cool before trying to remove it from the plate? That happens if you force it while it’s still hot. If it’s a new A1, it should not happen at all.

Heat gun worked - thanks!

No I did not let it cool - I’m used to just bending and popping off with my Prusa! I’ll print another and let it cool properly first this time :wink:

Yeah, the heat gun works when that happens. But with a textured plate it’s like this if not cooled enough. Not always, but sometimes it happens. Let us know later how it went :ok_hand:

Thanks guys - printed again and left to cool before removing and it came out perfect.
So guess I should pick up another bed plate or two so I can quickly swap and continue printing while letting the previous model cool…
