I love Mary Ellen's, too. It will take that crease from being on the bolt or other wrinkles right out. But sometimes I like to use something that makes the fabric stiffer for cutting because I'm having trouble with keeping my cuts accurate. I've only used spray starch from a can for that. I do try to let it soak in a little before ironing and that does help with the flaking. Best Press just doesn't flake, as far as I can tell. I may try mixing up some sta-flo instead for that, because I'm not crazy about aerosols.
