On my Replicator 2 I still use Aquanet on a heated glass plate. I tried PEI and PET surfaces
with different surface finishes and always had problems to remove printed parts.

This stuff?Does it scratch easily? Do prints release when cooled?Don't make me buy another product lol

Is the lexan thin enough to flex the print off, or do you just wait for it to cool, assuming you use a heated bed. Also is the latest the lexan removable?I've had great success with straight glass, wiped down with isopropyl, but scratches and pits develop in the glass over time.

I too have tried a painters tape, FLEKS3D, glass and aquanet, and a sanded lexan sheet. I had the best results with the glass and aquanet. Then I tried the lexan sheet, and that works great for me. I do occasionally have to resand it, but it works. I really don't see any difference in it from the FLEKS3D, but I never could get the FLEkS to work for me. It also wanted to keep warping, and the way it was cut it was hard to tack it down. I've only printed with ABS and PLA, so I don't know how well it will work with other materials.--Take careDerek

I always end up going back to mirrors and aquanet. 2 options I haven't tried arePrintBite and Filaprint.Before I sink more money into testing these 2 options, has anyone ever bought either and thought, that's it! the perfect bed surface!!!PrintBite looks like it will behave like mirror/aquanet but seems less durable, so not really sure I will end up buying that.Filafarm Filaprint also looks the same but is mega expensive. Never the less it seems to get good reviews. Is it just a case of people convincing themselves the investment was worth it?Honest options please.Lee

I use a magnetic sheet with a spring steel and PEI sheet. Works really well. Whambam now sell an improved version that can tollerate more heat without degrading the magnet. That said, mine still works well after many many prints at 80 to 85c.

No I got my parts from Aliexpress. The magnetic sheet actually came with a buildtak like sheet, but I just use the base magnet with the spring steel and PEI sheet I purchased seperately. Works well though.
Lifted from their site:Wham Bam PEX Polymer Build Surface which surpasses PEI in temperature resistance, performance, and material ‘stickability”. It sticks so well you would have a heck of a time getting the print off the bed without our Wham Bam Flexi Build Plate. Simply remove the Wham Bam Flexi Build Plate from the Wham Bam Flexi Magnetic Base on your 3D printer when the print is finished and flex slightly to pop your print right off! See our demo video below.Additionally, they have evidently improved their magnet as well.We'll see.

How is it different from regular spring steel / pei / and the fridge magnet type base?

The Wham Bam system looks nice. Just ordered one, should be here in a couple weeks, since it looks like they are waiting for another production shipment to arrive. Was a little concerned about durability, but they've got a video on refurbing the surface, and I can always drop back from their PEX surface to PEI.
