Was just wondering if there was any reason you shouldn’t flip the build plate if there was glue stick applied to the side you was flipping e.g. I have been using the cool plate with glue and want to use the engineer plate. Do I need to clean it of before flipping?
By my opinion yes , otherwise it will get messy
Probably possible but it’s really easy to remove the glue, so i would really suggest to clean the plate before flipping it.
To remove the glue : just put it under the water (with a cold continuous flow) and gently wipe the glue with your fingers as the water flows over, that’s all !
I would suggest to not use “hot water” as it may tend to generate bubbles under the sticker.
I almost always… mean to clean off the glue. But I haven’t been, and so far no problems.
It’s weird getting sticky hands when handling the sheet after a print. I feel I’ll wipe off the heated surface if I ever see build up, but it’s a bridge I’ve yet to come to in a month or two of not washing my plate.
Thanks everyone for the replies, really appreciate the help ![]()
