Looking for a mildly less textured PEI plate for H2S

Hi,

I’m printing a PETG disc face down. I actually like the texture from the original BL gold PEI plate, but the texture is just a bit too grainy.

I’m looking for basically exactly the same, just less grit. Does this exist, can anybody recommend one?

I don’t want one of those “patterns” like diamonds etc.

I tried these alternatives myself, not necessarily similar, just for completeness sake.

  • BIQU PyroGrip: similar to the BL PEI plate but even more grainy
  • BL smooth plate: ubersmooth but I don’t like the results, the part looks mass-produced
  • CryoGrip Frostbite: this leaves a paint-like texture, varnish-like. I actually really dislike this texture.

Thanks

Vinne

CryoGrip - but Glacier, not Frostbite :slight_smile:

Are you based in the US?

Darkmoon Satin is wonderful with its texture :slight_smile:

No I’m in Europe. I did check the Darkmoon Satin, but getting it here is too expensive.

About the CryoGrip Glacier. Would you say it’s more like the original BL Pei plate texture, just less grainy? Or is it more like the Frostbite “varnish / water drop-like” texture, but less pronounced?

The new Super Tack Pro could also be an interessting plate for you:
