So you clean with IPA a before each print? Perhaps wash with soap & warm water and give it a good scrub.

@mar-15

IPA not great for PETG, window spray is better. I found that bed temperature helps some filament stick better. An x-axis first layer perfect helps. Another thing is to review your first layer in the slicer, could be the model isn't quite flat.
