I don't have one of those special tips, but I've glue basted a couple things now. I did it the way an earlier poster did and held it up pretty high and squiggled the glue onto my quilt (my biggest was twin sized). I had a few globs, but had no problem quilting it in my machine and it all washed out when the quilt was done. I've also seen posts elsewhere on the board here where people have made their lines and then used a piece of cardboard or an old gift card to spread the glue out. Maybe that would help you.
