So I tried the burnt titanium PETG, and loved the look so much I decided to try another color. The black arrived super glossy.. but oh how I struggled to make it stick, as this was only my 2nd time to work with PETG. I was using a Creality PC magnetic steel spring bed sheet that works great on everything. But not this glossy stuff, after many tries.. I figured it out. I needed more heat and more bed adhesion.
Perfectly printed at nozzle 240C, Bed 80C, 15% Fan, slow speed 35% and the addition of painters tape then glue stick to my printer bed and perfection! No lines, the filament just melted into the next line beautifully. Can’t wait to do more.
I was afraid to use a glue stick on my PC sheet, as I wasn’t sure how compatible it was. But I’d bet a glass bed with adhesive would work very well, just didn’t want to mess with changing it out every time I switched filament types. Anyway… a slow 7 hours later
