I have some replacements on order but plan on using kapton in the mean time… I only have one quick question. All of the application methods I’ve seen are wet but when i remove the glass from the Taz 4 it is fused to the heated platter, is it ok to apply Windex etc to this glass and squeegee it off even when it’s still attached to the electronics?

Most thing’s I’ve seen say to take the glass off of the heated platform but this doesn’t seem like an option.

Edit: I realize now this was the wrong sub-forum my mistake.

There is a disconnect fitting on th bed, for safety I’d unplug that, and then just make sure you don’t get liquid down in the bed, or if you do, wait a while for it to dry before using the machine.
