Now every time i print, there is a thin layer of cured resin mess on almost the entire bottom of the vat ruining the print.
I have been using paper towels to wipe the FEP, might I have scratched the FEP to cause light bleed?
Please help.
Hi SteveB,
I'm also just getting started with my Mars 2 Pro, and had the same issue. For me, lowering the layer time helped dramatically both with FEP sticking and the chunks of resin floating in the tank after a print. I also slowed down the "lift speed" after each layer, which seemed to help as well.
Good luck!
