    Hatchbox ABS (white) balling on second layer

    Hello community, first time poster here so I hope I'm in the right spot.

    I have an A10M, I believe its a clone of the Ender 3 but with a cyclops head, and I have been having some issues with ABS. The first layer and brim go down well and adhesion isn't a problem. Where my problems start is the second layer where stringing/zits start to appear. As the hotend moves around it rolls them into balls/blobs which inevitability knock the printer out of alignment. Things I have tried are below:

    Calibrated to ensure 100 mm extruder is extruding 100mm
    Printer hotter at 260
    Printed colder at 225
    Hot bed at 110
    Hot bed at 85
    Increased distance z gap
    Decreased z gap

    I'm using a bltouch for auto level and printing on glass with hairspray as an adhesive. The filament I'm using is hatchbox ABS and the color is white. Attached are photos of what I'm experering. I am very grateful for any help as I am pulling my hair out at the moment
