3 things that help me with PETG when it comes to separate it from the plate:
Oh dude, glue stick 100%. PETG is my preferred print material, wouldn't dream of printing without the glue stick.
Use a smooth plate as well.
I’m actually using spray glue (3dlac) usually with a textured PEI (rarely a smooth PEI) plate. I’m also using PET/PEO (double sided) plate with PETG (without glue) - adhesion is really good, but not too good (so it’s easy to clean).
