Yes Yes Yes! One of the best!

I've had a 3D printer for over a year now and I love experimenting. I tried almost everything to keep the prints. (bare borosilicate, masking tape, kapton, hairspray, glue stick, zebra board). This PEI on a plate is still one of my favorites. It's strong enough to handle tear-off prints unscathed and peels prints off fairly easily once it's cooled. (After application, the surface should be sanded lightly with ultra-fine sandpaper or a magic eraser to give the print some grip.) Using PEI with aโ€ฆ

This is a great item to put on your 3D printer's table.

3D printer platforms must have 4 properties to ensure the prints will stick. They should be flat, evenly and evenly heated, and have a surface for the plastic to adhere to. This material meets the fourth criterion. I've already installed this stuff on two 3D printer beds (will be adding a third soon) and it was the best upgrade I could have made. PLA, ABS, and TPU adhere well and will peel off as the platform cools (okay, TPU needs to be peeled off, but it's not difficult). was at my house. For

Excellent surface for 3D printing

PEI material is a wonderful addition to any 3D printer platform. This eliminates the need for tape, hairspray, etc. to hold the prints in place. To attach to the build plate, use 3M 468MP (search the Revain website for TapeCase 468MP), a thin, heat-resistant adhesive strip. The 3M tape is applied to the PEI and then glued to the frame (or vice versa). Just be aware that the 3M material is VERY sticky and sticks strongly. If you make a mistake, it's almost impossible to remove the PEI and change

Pros
  • Raw material
Cons
  • Very expensive
