Heatbed Damage Assessment
So, long story short: my PINDA probe was malfunctioning so I took it out, desoldered the blue cable which fixed the issue.
I then told my printer to recalibrate because I was tinkering around with things and stepped out. I came back when I heard an awful grinding noise and during the probe check the extruder assembly managed to do this to the heatbed.
New heatbed time? Can I slap some electrical tape on it and proceed with caution?

nail varnish!
ordinary varnish and wait longer
in either case, consider a factory reset on the loaded firmware, before re calibrating!

Thank you very much, Joan. Will do, and will do!

💡 Use a small layer of liquid electrical tape.
Re: Heatbed Damage Assessment
A small piece of kapton tape or thin layer of nail varnish should do it.
The glue on electrical tape will not stick at high temperatures and the tape will become very soft. Basically it will fall off!

Depends on the liquid electrical tape. I have some around my CPU die right now to shield the resistors from the liquid metal thermal conductor I have right now. 🙂

I don't know anything about the properties of liquid electrical tape. Going by what you've said it sounds OK though.
I was referring to the original post: He asking if electrical tape was OK.
Personally I'd go with Kapton tape. It's thin and almost indestructible.
