I did see a recipe on one of the blogs I watch for a great starch but I can't find any of the ingredients over here, it was using a liquid starch mixed with something else - I don't think we use starch much in Oz compared to our American sisters.
I love this site and reading about all the different techniques, I hope you enjoy it too.
I also live in Australia. The ladies from my LQS recommended a liquid starch in an orange bottle-I think it was called Comfort. You dilutes it and put it in a spray bottle or used it as is for making the edges of your needle turn applique crisp. I also use any spray starch I can afford as I go through cans of it when putting washed fabric away.
