Printing on ABS Sheet

How effective would ABS sheets be for printing abs
There are various Pinseal/Smooth/Carbon effect, different thicknesses 1-5mm

Very good if you don't plan to remove the print from the sheet.

Most of my prints are warping lifting, I really need to find something better, pei is far too expensive.
Hairspray is ok for small prints
abs/acetone leaves a film, also warps, unless using a really thick layer

A raft would decrease the surface contact, that may be enough to seperate maybe.

Kapton tape or PET tape work for ABS on a heated bed and can be pretty inexpensive if you get the thin stuff. No juice, glue, hairspray or other messy stuff required.

You can print on a raft on PIR foam with out heat or bed leveling/zeroing.

I had a few ABS parts printed on a Stratasy printer. I was surprised to see the removable print beds are molded ABS sheet that are quick changeable. I looked at several used plate laying around to see that the parts separate rather well. The guy told me he prints a raft usually but occasionaly the bed is ruined. He pays $5 each for spares that Stratasy provides. It may be worth a try given the availability of spare ABS sheet.
