Currently I assume you used a business card or such which has a thickness of around .011 thousands
depending on the business card.

.3mm layer height is about that

by printing at a lower layer height such as .1 or .2 you will need to adjust your layer height from
the nozzle lower, otherwise you risk scrapping the surface because you are over extruding.

There are settings in slicer that allows you to set the first layer height as a thicker layer height however
it's still not ideal aside from getting a good base.

what is the distant from your nozzle to the bed?

I am printing with black PLA at 165 C on a glass bed heated to 70 C
