Magigoo MO2016 Pen, 3D Printing, Adhesive, All-in-One

Sometimes I just can't get my parts to stay attached to the bed, especially with PETG and ABS. Even with PLA, sometimes it just doesn't happen - especially when the contact area is small. This stuff works a treat, significantly increasing the chance of good first layer adhesion. It lasts for ages because it generally only needs a thin layer to be applied once and one can do lots of prints. Over time it needs reapplying - either straight on top, or wash off previous layer with a damp cloth (water soluble). It won't completely solve ABS/PETG warping issues, but it helps a lot - the bed adhesion can be so strong that the parts themselves break (layer separation) during printing rather than coming off the bed - and that's fixable with a soldering iron. Little tip - first use requires the seal to be broken by pushing the tip down onto a hard surface until it clicks. Also make sure the tip is nicely libricated with the liquid before trying to apply, otherwise you can damage the felt and then scratch your bed.

I have been using this product for the past four months without any troubles at all. I mainly use it on the CR-10 with PLA and PETG and had no problems with adhesion. In fact the part sticks well on a hot bed during printing and then can be literally picked up from the bed after everything cools down, just like magic. I also use it on a Wanhao replicator 4s with ABS and I have had no problems with warping, as long as the bed was correctly leveled. Application is easy, I just followed the instructions, pushed the tip on the bed, I think there is some sort of bead in the tip which lets the magigoo flow out in a consistent manner. On the first time I squeezed the bottle a bit too hard and a little too much magigoo came out but I spread it evenly on the bed and printed with no problems, so one should avoid squeezing the bottle with a lot of force as it will probably make a mess. However this is not such a problem as the product can be literally wiped away with a wet cloth. Overall I would say that I am very happy with this product since I can print directly on glass with no hassle at all, I just apply, print, wait for everything to cool and take off the print. I also like that the product came with clear instructions on how to use.

Great glue but bit of a dodgy applicator design

I was skeptical when I ordered this product. "Is it just a big expensive pritt-stick?", I thought. Having used the product, now I'm a believer. I'm using it to print PLA onto a glass surface. The first layer sticks very well, with no smearing or dragging of the first layer. Mission accomplished! However I then discovered the product has a second benefit which I didn't anticipate: once my heated bed cools down the print separates from the bed effortlessly. I can retire the putty knife I used previously to pry prints off the bed! So basically it's all brilliant on that front. The magigoo seems to remain on the glass, it doesn't transfer to the printed part as glue stick sometimes does, I've done about dozen prints without any need to re-coat the bed. Hopefully as long as I store the product properly (in the dark, it seems) it will last me a long time. I've only tried printing PLA so far. I'm going to try experimenting with PETG next. The only downside to the product is that if you have an uneven coating on magigoo a glass bed, which is what I ended up with having used the applicator they supply it in, any ripples or texture in the coating are transferred onto the printed part. If the bottom surface of the part will be on display this leaves an uneven pattern reflective/matt texture on that surface of the part. The best solution I have found so far is to lightly sand the surface with 1000, 1500 and then 2000 grit sandpaper after printing to give an evenly matt texture. Overall I think this stuff is great, not having to worry about adhesion or removing the print from the bed has made printing much more fun and practical. I bought this concerned that it wouldn't prove good value for money -- I'm pleased to report that I was wrong!

Fantastica! non si stacca piu niente! Non a buon mercato ma dura un sacco quindi ok

Quality is good

Magigooは凄い。 よく張り付いて、モデルが歪みません。

Lo utilizo con ABS sobre cama caliente de cristal a 108º y pega super bien. Cero warping con ABS de SUNLU y de FORMFUTURA. Lo malo es que hay que limpiar la cama despues de cada impresión (esponja con agua y trapo humedo), y que suelen quedar restos en las piezas. Si te pasas de producto en la cama te hace un "pegote" en la pieza dejando marcas. Hay que aplicar una capa fina y homogenea, con cuidado de no dejar zonas con excesos.

Ich war ein wenig verzweifelt. Ich habe den Artillery Sidewinder X1 V5, der ja schon von Haus aus ein sehr gut haftendes Druckbett hat. Ich habe mich vor etwa einer Woche an das Drucken von ASA herangewagt. Da ich (Noch) keinen gekapselten Bauraum habe, hatte ich mich schon auf Haftungsprobleme eingestellt. Und so war es dann auch. alles was höher als 10mm war löste sich früher oder später von der Platte. Dann habe ich diesen Klebestift bestellt... zu verwenden ist er etwa so wie ein normaler Klebestift die Konsistenz ist bei kalter Druckplatte etwas dicker als Wasser. so kann der Kleber schön in alle Unebenheiten der Druckplatte fließen. sobald ich dann die Platte heize fängt der Kleber an zu kleben. nach dem Druck bekomme ich gedruckte ASA-Teile nun nicht mehr von der noch warmen platte gelöst, vorher lagen die Teile halt mehr oder weniger auf der Platte. sobald die Platte abkühlt hört man schon wie sich die Teile selbst lösen (knackt und knistert). anschließend nehme ich ein stück Nasse Küchenrolle und reibe kurz über die Platte. Der Kleber ist Wasserlöslich, daher ist die Druckplatte danach blitzsauber. das entfetten mit Spiritus lasse ich mir aber trotzdem nicht nehmen. leider finde ich 18€ etwas viel, aber verkraftbar. zudem weiß ich auch noch nicht wie ergiebig so ein Stick ist. Alles in allem klare Kaufempfehlung von mir. ich werde gar nicht erst irgendwas anderes auprobieren, da diese Anwendung sehr einfach ist und ich hinterher kein geschmiere habe.
