Considerations

• Please note that with the Smooth PEI Plate on the A1 there is a higher risk the plate curling from the corners, or the printed models to detach from the plate. This is caused by the thicker Smooth PEI applied to the plate, which will increase the distance from the bed magnets and lower the magnetic attraction.
• If bubbles appear on the bottom of the sheet, heating it on the heatbed at a temperature of no less than 80 degrees for several hours can be helpful in eliminating the bubbles.
• Deposition of dust and grease on the build plate decrease adhesion. It is recommended to regularly clean the surface with detergent and water to to maintain best adhesion.
• Do not clean the Smooth PEI with Acetone, as it will damage the PEI surface.
• Always wait for a few minutes before removing printed models to allow the plate to cool down for easy print removal. This prevents damage to the plate and ensures a long lifetime of the product.
• Carefully sanding the surface with fine-grit (600 was recommended) sandpaper can help restore adhesion.
• The Smooth PEI plate is considered a consumable part, which will degrade over time. The warranty will only cover manufacturing defects, not cosmetic damage like scratches, dents, or cracks. Defective sheets upon arrival are the only ones covered by the warranty.
