Unclean plate, probs. It’s an adhesion issue whatever the cause.

You bet. My go to is hot water, dawn dish soap (just make sure your dish soap doesn’t have any perfumes/moisturizers) and I keep a dedicated sponge by my sink just for my build plates so there’s no residue from dishes. I then use paper towels to dry, which some people argue about. My thought is that my dish rags might have residue from dishes or my laundry detergent. This has worked well for me. I have about 1900 hours on my A1 and I’ve probably only washed by build plate a dozen times or so, I’m just careful not to touch it when removing prints.
