Hi I'm trying to get this filamenthttp://www.plastic2print.com/eu/flexible-3mm-filament-black-shore-65d.html to stick to my UM2 glass bed.. Tried hairspray on glass, Knapton, heated and not heated.. Just won't stick.. I would really appreciate your help.. As I have a big project, and use for this filament.

Thanks in anticipation

David

    How hot have you tried for the bed? IIRC it requires more heat than the recommended 75C. Try 100C and see how that goes.

     

    Thanks, tried 100, the brim just curls up :(

    when the brim is done, tape it to the bed with ducktape or blue tape. When it starts curling it does not function any more, air creeps underneath and the curling gets worse.
