Powder coating directly on metal makes it very hard to damage this build plate. If a heated
nozzle crashes into it, the metal can dissipate the heat. Powder coating also gives the
surface a distinct textured look that will be visible on your prints.
The textured surface hides most of the mechanical damage caused by tools. Only the top of
the small bumps can be scratched, which will not imprint on the bottom of the model.
Never clean the textured powder coated sheet with acetone!
Doing so will
create microfractures in the PEI texture, which will make the surface deteriorate
over time.
This surface is used on our print farm, look at the printed parts you have on your printer for
reference.
