Lowes Blue Hawk Tape Works Great
I was in Lowes hardware the other day and noticed their store brand (Blue Hawk) of blue painters tape was almost 3" wide. I picked up a roll and have had fantastic results. Both PLA and PETG have been sticking great! In fact, I almost have the reverse problem where the part sticks too well - but not quite. In both cases the heat bed is off. I have a thin piece of glass over my heat bed. Then I have a layer of traditional 3M blue painters tape. I then run enough of the Blue Hawk tape over the 3M tape to ensure my part will fit.
I printed a 6" wide PLA part and it tried to lift at the edges. I used clamp style paper clips to clamp the edge of the blue tape to the glass over the heat bed and I had minimal lift - it stuck to the tape that well.
I have not tried it with ABS yet - that is next.
I highly recommend that you try this tape.
