📦 Gizmo Dorks 3M 468MP Adhesive Transfer Tape Sheets - 12x12 (5-Pack) Review

Bought to stick a PEI sheet on my 3D printer bed. What I wasn't prepared for in advance (I probably could have figured it out by doing some research) is that not only is this stuff very sticky, it's very similar to those sticky boogers you get in those fake credit spam emails . It's the same but on steroids. Lesson learned: Stick it to a flat surface or be prepared to spend a lot of time peeling off those boogers to reapply.

After I cut the sheet properly it was usable. I wasted 3 leaves when it got stuck in my krikout. On one occasion I had to literally scrape off sticky goo to get it working again. They are very sticky but don't seem to stick to the surface as well as other brands. I like the size as opposed to the other letter types I've used, but that's the only positive thing about this experience. I would NOT buy again. Throw away the rest of the pack.

Will not hold PEI on glass when bed temperature often exceeds 80°C. It withstands PLA temperatures well, but at temperatures of 90-100°C the film starts to peel off on its own during printing. Even with ABS, the part adheres perfectly to the PEI surface, but the glue doesn't hold the PEI film to the glass, and you can find an air bubble under the part - the glue stays on the glass, but doesn't stick to the PEI strongly enough higher temperatures. Temperature. looking for other options.

Used it to install a PEI sheet on my 3D printer bed. The problem with this is that whatever was used to cut the sheets tended to do something to keep the glue from peeling off the backing. Therefore, when you separate the backing from the adhesive to lay it on a film or polyethylene bed, it pulls on the adhesive and stretches it. As a result, instead of a nice square sheet of glue measuring 12x12 inches, you end up with a piece of glue sticking to itself. This happened to 3 of the 5 sheets I…

When you peel off the large wax film and apply to the surface everything looks normal and normal. However, if you try to peel off the brown film (which has the 3M logo on it), the adhesive will peel off the surface it's currently attached to, destroying the adhesive layer with holes that have no adhesive on them. And if you try to remove the brown foil first, the glue will peel off the wax foil. This product requires two sheets of wax, which dispenses the adhesive evenly and easily. In this…

One of the most frustrating things about flexographic plates is that no matter how careful you are, the adhesive loses strength over time. In our shop, we add customer logos to our products, so we have to switch between plates frequently. In the past, when adhesion failed, we used tape around the edges until there was no adhesion and then bought new panels. This is frustrating as plates can be quite expensive. Even more disappointing is that the plates aren't worn enough to need replacing…
