We start with our original high chromium spring steel Flexi Plates, powder paint them with PEI, and bake them in a kiln. The PEI Powder Painted Flexi Sheets have a pronounced texture and give the bottom of your part a fantastic finish! The plates are coated on both sides, so you can save one side for pristine parts while you abuse the other side. Works perfectly with your Wham Bam magnetic base, not included. The Flexi Plate is 0.6mm thick.
It behaves as most PEI sheets would and works great with PLA, TPU, PETG, ABS, as well as many other filaments. If you need more adhesion for tough-to-stick filaments like Nylon, feel free to use purple glue sticks or Magigoo, they will wash off with water after use.
To clean, use some isopropyl alcohol after each use to keep contaminants away. If you ever need to restore adhesion, use very fine sandpaper 600 or higher and pass lightly, then clean with alcohol. For PLA and PETG we recommend 70° C bed temperature.
*Attention: It is the buyer’s responsibility to be sure the size selected will work on your machine. Measure your bed, do not rely on build volume. Wham Bam is not responsible for mistaken order sizes.

PEX Build Surface
Nothing has made removing prints from the bed easier. I got this as a gift and I would never go back. Say goodbye to the dreaded bed scraping to remove tough prints.
I have an Ender 5 plus that I've had lots of problems trying to get prints to stick to. The original glass bed was not sticky enough, a sheet of g10 was not sticky enough (even when roughed up with sandpaper), and a sheet of zebra skin was a bit too sticky. The wham bam PEX is perfect, though it took a few heating+cooling cycles to reach prime stickiness. I've only had one failed print since switching (and the failure happened in a known low spot on the bed). Highly recommend.
This build plate is great , I have no adhesion issues with anything.So far tried PLA,PETG ,ASA,PETG CF.
Thanks for the great product.
I have older machines that are absolute workhorses.
But the Taped unremovable plate made life difficult when the tape was new, prints had to be yeated out of the machine.
Now I just wait for the plate to cool, and the print just gently pops off the WHAMBAM PEX plate.
Also worth noting, I havent had the need to use a brim or raft for supports since getting the PEX plate for these machines.
The adheasion is incredible!
