Hey, everyone, I have a sheet of 8x8 PEI for my Prusa i3 bed. I was told there is a certain type of tape that I need to hold it to the glass but I can't find it anywhere.

Could someone link me to the cheapest stuff I can use that'll work well? I'm stingy haha.

Thanks so much!

Maybe this: [www.digikey.com]

But it *may* be harder to apply than strips, I can't say.

This is what I plan on using...

Holding it down with binder clips should be okay until I get a more permanent solution correct?

Oh, and this is one spot you should not cheap out on. If you don't get the right tape, it will cause you many headaches and money down the road.
