I tried again. When the first attempt failed, I peeled off all the RTV and it turned out I had put about 1/16 inch of insulation on it... I redid it, this time making sure I applied it thicker. I also did about 3 passes. I have much closer to a quarter inch of RTV on it, and its printing well. As I type this, I've been printing for 1 hour, 23 minutes without the shutoff kicking in, and the M3s through the acrylic are not too hot to touch. Neither is the RTV.
