It works fine for large projects. Some quilters have said they spray baste polyester battings with no problem; others have a problem with it sticking to polyester. I suspect the difference may be in the brand of basting spray used. I don't remember anyone reporting a problem with 505, but it might be a good idea ask specifically about 505 and polyester batting in a separate post, so people with experience will respond.

I always use 100% cotton batting, so I don't have personal experience with basting spray and poly.
