that depends how you are saving it.
if you use m500 then yes.
otherwise you have to add it to the config.g manually.

but the orignal mosquite does not come with a sock, so i take it they did not design for one to be used.
this makes sense, as the silicone would be detrimental at very high temperatures.

I concur the silicone is good for about 375C sustained. and intermittently to just over 700C according to the manufacturer it would have to be remover for larger print times above 400

I'm using them and they work very well.
