ISOLEYIN Ultra PLA 3D Printing Filament 1kg, 1.75mm

I got two spools of this stuff (black and white). First few prints with the white went perfectly. Since then, it won’t adhere normally.

I’ve tried increasing the bed temperature to 60, filament temperature to 210, washed the bed and reapplied the glue, dried the filament… nothing works.

When I try a raft, it blobs through it, and then won’t adhere to itself.

I’m assuming it’s me, but idk what I’m doing wrong.

Please be kind, I’ve only had my printer for a couple of months.

    A little Windex for the first round, and then Dawn dish soap and warm water. I always use paper towels.

      Yeah. That’s not a good idea, despite everyone recommending it. (Well, manufacturers don’t, neither do professionals) Dish soap is actually often putting a limited greasy lawyer on things to protect skin,etc. Isopropanol for the win. A very very small amount is enough.

      If it’s so bad it needs water then use Iso later on.
