Bed Adhesion

I thought after years with it and lots of use I'd be on top of Mk3 bed adhesion issues.

Then after a couple of months not using it, my Mk3 fell into severe adhesion issues.  With masking tape, adhesion was too much, with the normal PE bed sheet adhesion was near non-existant, extremely poor.

All the usual fixes didn't.

Then I put my digital infrared thermometer on it. and while regulating the bed temp as closely as always, the bed was levelling out at 10-15C down!! 

OK, maybe I was a bit slow to realise this, but setting the bed to "80C" for PLA gave actual 60-62C, and ITS BACK working perfectly as before!!

Might help you if you get similar loss of reliable printing adhesion?
