ooh youll have to let us know how it works... i'm using cardboard
I have cork under mine.
I, too, am using cork.
I have cork on the underside of my heated pad, and two layers of aluminium cooking foil between the heated pad and the glass sheet.

why did you decide to add the alum foil under the glass?
Hmm looks like an interesting product to try. I would be a little concerned that it is normally used to insulate pipes from a cold environment instead of being heat resistant. The concern being the product may melt when introduced to 110C, but it is worth trying out to see!
What thickness is the cork you guys are using?

I put the aluminium foil between the heatbed and the glass to try to ensure that they were both in contact with a heat conductive medium. Aluminium conducts heat a million times better than air.

Aluminium (or aluminum; see spelling differences)
