What did you do to that poor build plate?!?

A lot of printing. It’s basically impossible to clean it well.

Are you removing your prints when the build plate is still hot? If so, and your plate is PEI, it’ll get destroyed

It looks like a glass carborundum Creality plate. I have one of them, they work really well until one day they just don’t.

With that one (creality textured glass carborundum something or other) I kept hitting it with 95%+ IPA, it just gives out eventually. I switched to a textured spring steel plate recently, world of difference for petg, PLA, and tpu. It’s just another consumable :/

If you’re not ready to switch yet a layer of masking tape can get you by for awhile, it’s just a pain because the masking tape will need to be replaced about every other print depending on your settings.
