# Applying Bed Adhesive - PC Blend, Nylon
### **Summary**
- Order bed adhesive through the filament order form.
- Magigoo PC: use when printing PC Blend preparatory sockets on Galileo O&P and Galileo Pro 2. Bed adhesive is not needed when printing PC Blend AFOs.
- Magigoo PA: use when printing Nylon AFOs on Galileo O&P.
### **How do I apply the adhesive?**
#### First Application
- Make sure the bed is clean from debris.
- Set the bed temperature to 60 degrees to help the adhesive dry.
- Shake the bottle, press the nib onto print bed, squeeze out adhesive into an about 1.5” wide puddle, and wipe it around to distribute it in a thick, even layer. It may steam while drying and should appear matte and waxy when dry.
- Apply a second coat in the same way.
- Prep sockets: We recommend covering an area in the center of the bed in a circular shape, roughly 4-5” in diameter, before starting your print.
- Nylon AFOs: We recommend covering the bed in a large oval at the front of the bed and a smaller oval at the back of the bed, as shown in the diagram below. the diagram below.
#### **Ongoing Adhesive Usage**
- **Reapplication Between Prints:** Apply additional adhesive in a thin layer where bare spots of the bed are visible between prints.
- **When Should I Clean My Bed?**
- After 10 prints, or when there is substantial buildup (~1mm). This is advised to prevent excessive buildup.
- Cleaning is not necessary if switching to another filament such as PETG for check sockets.
- Do not mix Magigoo PA and Magigoo PC. Wash the bed when switching between adhesive types.
- DO NOT flip the bed over with adhesive on the bed.
- **How do I clean my bed?** Simply wipe down your print bed with water and cloth. It should wipe off easily. Avoid touching the center of the print bed with your fingers because it can leave oils.
