Ok new symptom: the corners of a box that I'm printing are curling up
I had this happen on my ender 3 v2 recently as well, a thin layer of washable purple gluestick has solved it for me (though parts are now sometimes a bit difficult to remove and sometimes require a moist rag to get the gluestick residue off)
I've heard of using gluestick...but dang it sounds messy. Do you have a link to the stuff you tried?
Most brands should work fine. Same with hairspray.
I've been using glass print surfaces and glue stick for 10+ years. I just wash off the glass with warm water every 2-3 prints otherwise just add a new layer of glue stick before printing. I'm going to try a G10 print surface next as I finally found some in my country.
