TPE NOT sticking to bed on mk2s

I'm having problems getting TPE to stick to the heatbed (PEI on mk2s), which seems to be the exact opposite of what everyone else has problems with.

The ends of my print start lifting and eventually the whole thing comes loose before it's done.

I've gotten the bed up 110C so far, used glue, not used glue. Not sure what else to try.

Anyone else experience this?

Small update - I've now also tried creating a brim about 20 layers tall to try to keep some of the heat in with the part, no go.

I've also tried tried creating a brim at 0.3mm away from the part with 5 outlines, and that's not working either.

There must be a way to get this stuff (TPE from Filaments.ca) to stick - anyone?

Got the exact same problem, are trying to print an octopus where one half is on surface with glue stick and other half without glue stick, to se what sticks the best.
But could sure use some help with settings for TPE

Ok, I have a print going so I can't try for another day, but here is what got from the manufacturer (Filaments.ca):

Try a LOWER bed temp of 45C, nozzle 240C, glue stick, and of course print very slowly. If that doesn't work, try blue painters tape on the bed.
