Sticking to resin vat
#1
Is there a secret to keeping the resin from sticking to the bottom of the vat?  My first print did that..then I angled it as was suggested by everything I read and it printed great.  Now I'm trying to print a small model for my wife but it's sticking to the bottom of the vat constantly.  I angled it as you can see in the included image, but it's the raft that's sticking and I can't seem to get it to stop.

Thank you for any insight and help any of you can provide!

One thing I read online is someone saying they used Rain-X on the vat and that stopped resin sticking to the bottom.  But this concerns me, as I don't know what chemical reaction could be had by the resin and the rain-x film and I'm not sure if it could mess up how the resin cures.  Has anyone else done this, has anyone else heard of this?  

I'm all for hacks to fix solutions like this but I'm not looking to damage my vat, ruin my resin or potentially cause a nasty chemical reaction.
