I was using June Taylor with great results, then they changed to a different formula and it was HORRIBLE. After emailing them they were great and have now changed their formula again. The new formula is in the new style can that tapers down on the top with a small cap but be sure that it says "Improved Formula" in dark pink or red on the front. The formula is pretty much the same as 505 and Dritz and I really like it. I don't like the Sullivan's in the pink can though.
Hi,
Thanks for the tip as I always have a problem laying out a quilt. I have used the 505 spray. Do you use spray starch on the back first? The bed or wall looks like a good place to lay them out.

Thanks,
