Thermal stability
|
More stable at higher temps
|
Can break down or lose adhesion at high temps
|
Ease of part removal
|
Provides strong grip when hot, easy release when cool
|
Often too sticky; may damage prints or build plates
|
Surface uniformity
|
Forms a smooth, consistent adhesion layer
|
Can dry unevenly or form skins
|
Reusability
|
Can often be reactivated with water
|
Same, but may degrade faster
|
Multi-material use
|
Better suited for engineering filaments
|
Better for PLA, PETG
|
Stickiness vs flexibility
|
Balanced grip and flex
|
Sometimes overly sticky, hard to tune
|
