What type of filament are you using? The heated bed usually works fine for me with PLA, but I have that problem with Abs.
I have to up the bed temperature to 60 or 70 and a little hairspray on the bed helps a lot.
I use PLA and PLA+ 1.75Quote:

I might try the hairspray trick.
Thanks
Watch what hairspray you get. i tried this and it didn't work. I understand that it has to be "Extra Hold" type to work. The ordinary ones don't.
Cheers,

Most hairsprays have both sticky stuff (to keep the shape) and lubricant (so one hair doesn't stick to the next). This is not helpful for printing.
The "extra hold" type sprays, (like, for a high mohawk or beehive hairdo) have only the sticky stuff an no lubricant (so all the hairs stick to each other). For many materials, this is helpful for printing.
