Topic: [Solved] How to remove glass from ABS+hairspray
I have tried everything and nothing works as well as glass+hairspray with glue stick coming in at a close second. However, the problem I now face is I periodically lift slivers of glass off the plate. like this:
Once I do this on both sides I have to throw away the plate. I've tossed 4 such plates in the last six months. I am developing procedures to avoid this. For example, I have noticed that if I remove the part before the plate cools down it won't crack. However, when it does happen, removing the glass from the part is a real PITA. For small slivers, I've found alcohol works well to dissolve enough hairspray to dislodge the part but for large slivers such as in the picture this doesn't work so well and you still end up chipping the glass off bit by bit. Any of the veterans out there have a good procedure?
