About the little plastic thingies for basting with the gun. I used a large nail clipper to remove them. Just be careful not to clip the fabric.
The thing I bought was only a couple of pounds. It is a kind of hook shaped thing with a handle that you slide under the tack and it's so sharp it just kind of pops it off. http://www.ladysewandsew.com/v2/prod...roducts_id=424

I tried spray baste a few years ago but as I hand quilt, it shifted like crazy so I've been afraid to try it again.
