Yeah I was doing that for a bit but I hate cleaning it off the plate. I should have never switched to borosilicate 😂
buy a cheap spray / spritzer, fill it with IPA, saturate the hairspray before paper toweling it off. You may have to take two passes to get it right. You can get away with a pretty good layer of the the hairspray, so I usually just touch up the bed with a spray between builds and clean after maybe 10 or something...
Glass cleaner also works very well for removing most of the glue. Let it soak for a little and then use a scraper to remove the glue
