<@&1122587817768398938> I finally had my 1st print issue with PA6-GF. In this case I was printing a tall narrow object and it failed 11h into a 12h print.
I've been using a textured PEI sheet without issue until now but was wondering if satin or smooth might be a better choice.

I use the textured with gluestick or 3DLac when I had a local supplier, but (judging by names of surfaces you gave) prusa gives a dedicated for nylon build plate

Actually on a voron but have all 3 at my disposal. Haven't used glue stick or a brim with the textured PEI but they won't hurt I suppose

Yeah I got the impression this may have been a nozzle collision more than just a loose or warped print BUT more adhesion won't hurt

Additional Tips
Drying Filament: Ensure the filament is completely dry before printing. Use a filament dryer or a thermostatic drying oven to dry the filament according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Nozzle Type: Use a hardened steel nozzle to prevent wear due to the abrasive nature of the glass fibers.

Bed Adhesion: Use a glass bed with a smooth surface and apply glue (or spray adhesive) to ensure sufficient adhesion

I think the key was some glue. The part completed without issue and had great adhesion in a textured PEI with glue stick

Bed temp like 35 to prevent warping
