Have you tried lowering the bed temp?
What works for others may not work for you.

Personally I have to run both my nozzles and bed at slightly lower temps that what most run. I think this is due to there being rather high humidity where I'm at.
For ABS I typically start with a bed temp of 100-105, and drop it down to 80 by layer 5 or so. If your first layer sticks without issue then bed temp probably does not need to go up any higher.

Keep in mind to much hairspray can be as bad as to little. I repeat something rcleav said to me in this very forum when I first got my machine....spray the glass till it just starts to look like frosted glass (the type used for bathroom windows n such). This was very god advice as I have yet to have a single issue originating from to little/much hairspray.
Also make sure your using the right stuff...purple can, says all-weather on it.


So....lets talk about acetone now....
I have got ABS slurry down I think, but am curious now about acetone's effects on other materials.
I have never seen mention of PLA, PeTG, or Nylon slurry, so I assume that its break down of these materials is not stable enough for slurry. But has anyone tried smoothing or vapor bath techniques with acetone on other materials than ABS?

Just got a 3D scanner. Made by XYZ Printing it was only $180, with free shipping. It only has a 1.5mm resolution, so not the best scanner by a long shot. But it is handheld, super easy to set-up and use, and it exports files already in .stl format. If you can deal with the loss in resolution is a cheap easy way to get basic scans.
