Description
The BuildTak polyetherimide (PEI) construction surfaces are manufactured in the USA to ensure consistent quality and composition.
They are made from premium Ultem 1000 PEI, which is equipped with the No-Cleanup BuildTak Original Adhesive.
As a comparable alternative to the BuildTak Original 3D printing surface, BuildTak PEI has slightly different adhesion and release properties that vary depending on the material being printed.
In general, BuildTak PEI provides easier removal of finished prints, while BuildTak Original provides a greater hold when printing.
Combined with our Complete BuildTak FlexPlate system, you can easily swap multiple FlexPlates between the BuildTak Original and BuildTak PEI print finishes, depending on the material being printed.
For example, PolyCarbonate needs the extra hold of BuildTak to finish the prints, while PEI is recommended for easier removal of the models for PETG.

Rated with 4 out of 5 stars.
Works wonderfully straight out of the box with PLA and after messing about with the temperature of the heated plate works well with ABS

Rated with 5 out of 5 stars.
As you can read from the title, I have tested it with the most common filaments and none failed to stick here. Only use the thinnest layer of hairspray so you can detach the prints after your bed cooled off and clean it with alcohol regularly. Careful when installing this film, I have installed it on glass and it was a bit of a pain, if you screw up it's hard to fix it so fix it well in a corner and slowly stick it further. IT KEEPS A LOT OF BUBBLES UNDER IT, so have patience and pull the bubbles out with a card or something. Apply it while bed is a bit warm (40-50 degrees C).
Also, mine didn't have the BuildTak branding anywhere, was just the clear yellowish film (a bit weird for me). Overall good.Was this rating helpful? (2) (0)
