They say to spray the batting; not sure why.
I think spray basting on a table is easier than on a wall. Also, I found out that it's a good idea to position the batting on the backing first, then fold back half the batting. Spray half of batting and reposition, then fold back other half, spray and reposition. First time I did it I sprayed the entire batting and then tried to position it. Never again! Much easier to do the half-and-half technique (whether on a wall or a table or floor).
Ditto on all...
Also after you spray, let it dry for 2-3 minutes first. I still pin a bit after spraying, but not nearly as much. I probably don't need to pin at all. I'm just paranoid. I love spray basting for doing my own SID or whatever.
Because I have asthma, I wear a face mask and spray baste in the garage. Its a pain to set up clean tables or a clean sheet on the floor, but worth it to me.
I only do my own quilting on smaller stuff, so I don't know how well it works for big quilts.
