Recommended Settings

Here are some good starting points for various materials. Please note that if you print using a material other than PLA or TPU, glue will likely be required. The glue is used for release from the plate and sometimes for additional adhesion. PVA glue sticks spread with water or IPA are recommended.

PETG always requires glue for release or permanent damage to the build plate can be expected.

Users should assume that glue is required outside of PLA and TPU and may experiment with small prints in far corners of the build plate if they want to see if glue may not be required.

Damage to the build plate can be mitigated by gently roughing the surface with sand paper. Please see the Darkmoon LUX Build Plate User Guide for more information on how to maintain, clean, and service your LUX build plate.

Amazing!

I have 3 Darkmoon plates now. LUX, ICE, and Satin. I use the Lux for TPU mainly, but its so nice! TPU sticks better than the Bambu smooth plate, and then also comes off so much easier!

Perfect smooth PEI build plate for an X1

Received the plate packaged well enough my mail carrier couldn't bend it to shive in my mailbox...kudos! Very smooth surfaced and bed adhesion is phenomenal...I don't ever use glue. Leaves a glossy finish on the print if the build plate is thought cleaned of previous residue. Outstanding quality.

Injection molded finish, favorite build plate !

I was probably one of the first to order this build plate. I was super excited for when it came out!

So far the only issue I have is it isn’t double sided like the other build plates (probably has to do with how he creates his finish. Lastly, I’ve only gotten it to locate the build plate once.

Other than those two issues I love it. It is really good for texture face down it gives it and professional look. I’ve only done PLA but I’ve had no issue with Bambu’s PLA or other PLA Silk. I’m a little sad that this plate is going to degrade given the price but the finish it creates is absolutely stunning!

It’s hard to get photos but imagine your smooth build plate finish and then make it shiny 😂
