Spray starch is made from corn; sizing is made chemically. Bugs won't eat sizing, so some people prefer it for fabric that will be stored.

Spray starch (even the heaviest kind) is still much lighter than what you can get by mixing Sta-Flo and water yourself. Sizing is lighter than the heaviest kind of spray starch I have found.

I don't think there is necessarily a "better"; it's a matter of personal preference, location, and need.
