Wham Bam,
Thank you, firstly, for taking my money. Secondly, thank you for a flawless shipping experience, even if UPS made my package look like it was attacked by the creature from An American Werewolf in London. The contents were well, WELL packaged and the plate survived the assault.
Now I have to say why I am sold. I have a lot of Panchroma CoPE filament and that stuff attaches to PEI like it has an agenda to rule the world. This CF plate? Yeah, the CoPE slid right off when I blinked my eyes near it (after it was properly cooled). I did use a sacrificial layer of Magigoo, but this plate is great. PLA Pro and PETG have been equally easy to use on this plate and I just got it a day ago as of this writing.
It is impressively smooth and I have had zero issues with grip. You recommend glue for PLA Pro and while I am using it, I forgot for the first print and it still came off with ridiculous ease. I have no other plates that perform like this. I am sold.
