Carbon PETG

I have a hardened nozzle and from what I've read I just need to wipe the PEI with Windex or similar so that it won't stick too much.

Do I have that right?

Re: Carbon PETG

With your hardened nozzle you will perhaps have to increase the Temperature by a few degrees.
And make sure you use a release agent on the PEI print surface.
Espacially the Carbon PETg is very sticky.

Try it first on a small object and lift up the live-z. You will see how well it sticks. If it's already too much, use hairspray/glue stick or tape for larger surfaces. Otherwise you will damage your PEI sheet pretty fast

Re: Carbon PETG

Also slow way down until you're familiar with it. Easiest is to adjust Max volumetric speed under Filament settings->Advanced. PETG is normally 8. Some carbon filled (XT-CF20) is 1. Start somewhere in between and increase it as you have success. I had several hard clogs before I figured this out.
