My machines don't seem to like nylon threads...so I won't use them. But Superior isn't nylon...it is a thin poly.

I don't let it spool off the machine...I put it in a coffee mug and let it spool off more gently. My machine has a high guide so don't need to figure out a different type...but what was written before me sounds like it works.
I also loosen my tension a bit. Try a machine quilting needle (schmetz). I have had better luck with them.
