Protective backing on Form+ Resin tank

[JoshuaSommer]

This will definitely be the stupidest question of the day … I got my Form+ upgrade with the new tank. The (nice) cover says, “Remove protective backing before printing.” I can’t see any protective backing, even a thin sheet of protective film, which is what I expect to see. Please elucidate for me.

Setting up resin tank

Just received my Form1+ today, and I’m setting up for printing. On the resin tank it says “remove protective backing” but I don’t see any peel off plastic on the bottom side. Not looking goog enough? I don’t want to damage anything. JB

Cant find the protective plastic on the new resin tank

I just received two new resin tanks (my previous tank was the clear on that shipped with the original kickstarter printer). and I can’t find the protective layer on the bottom of the tank that I am supposed to peel off.

There’s a lot of good info on the forum already, you can search with the magnifying glass at the top.

there is not plastic backing on the trays any more this was just a note on older revision trays the new trays come in a plastic wrap and that is it. If it is the tray in the machine during shipping just remove the black top and you are good to go. Do not worry about I made the same mistake when I first got mine. Good luck and happy printing.

I just opened my upgraded form+. I noticed I can’t seem to take out the resin tray. Is there a different way to remove the resin tray for the form+ as opposed to the form1?
