What provokes this mess?

I'm trying to print a simple surface, nothing fancy.

The parameters are:

0.10mm DETAIL

Prusament PETG

Infil 15%

The nozzle was clean when it started.

I've read that 0.10mm sometimes does that, but I did it before and it was never that bad.

 

Best Answer by JoanTabb:

are there finger prints on the build plate?
I would start off by washing the build plate with hot water and dish soap, in the sink, and then rinsing with hot water and drying immediaely with Plain paper towels, to get the build plate really clean, then try again.

It happened again...

This was with 0.15mm.

Is this symptomatic of some bad calibration? I think my first layer is pretty well calibrated.

Thanks, I did few trials after thoroughly cleaning the plate, and it doesnt do it again. It must be that then. Thanks again!
