#3dprinting takes some maintenance. I use PVA glue stick (Elmers glue) , which I get for sale once the school supplies go onto the discount shelf at the grocery store.
If you get the purple one, it changes color when it's wet so you can see it. Yes, scraping it up is disgusting purple slime.
If your prints are not sticking to your build plate even though you used glue, there may be too much or it's too flakey for the filament to stick.
I like PVA because it's water soluble and easy to clean. Just pour some water over it, let it soak and than scrap off.
