So I looked in my office box and found an old UHU stic, that really worked well. After the stic was empty I bought a new one in a shop, but for what ever reason the same product didn&#8217;t work any more suddenly. Whatever I did, I could not get the new UHU stic working for me, so I had a problem. Perhaps the manufacturer changed the recipe ? In a forum I read the tip to use cheap wood glue mixed with a little water as a bed coating. Hoever that didn&#8217;t work eihter, though the wood glue was water solvent. Then I tried powder sugar as a glue, but that again didnt work. Finally when I was desperate because I could not finish my prints, I&nbsp; tried to mix the powder sugar with the rest of the wood glue. And believe it or not, that worked perfectly. This mixture of <strong>Powder sugar with wood glue<\/strong> on my 112 \u00b0 C hot print bed was so successful that I sometimes had difficulties to remove the prints from the bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Mixture:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Put 50 % powder sugar into a seperate vessel.<\/li><li>Add droplets of water until you have a viscosity similiar to salad oil<\/li><li>Put 50% white wood glue (UHU original white wood glue &#8211; water solvent) into another vessel and add water until the viscosity is again about like salad oil. <\/li><li>Mix the two solvents carefully.  If flocks build up you need to filter them out later using a tea sieve or similar.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Later the glue may be easily re-activated if too dry by spotting some water onto it with a moist sponge &#8211; even if the print bed is already hot. <\/li><li>Meanwhile I use only my self made solvent for my prints. <\/li><li>The good thing is: After the print bed has cooled down, the parts can be easily removed with little force. <\/li><li>Dont try to remove the prints when hot &#8211; you may damage your prints because they stick very hard.<\/li><li>I still have bed glue from th beginning. Meanwhile I made hundreds of prints. In other words, this print bed glue is very efficient. since it can be re-activated with a few droplets of water. I clean my print bed every 10 prints or so, and apply some new glue. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bechele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/152-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"775\" height=\"778\"\/><figcaption>The Ingredients I used<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oops it didn&#8217;t work any more &#8230;..
