Default Has anyone used Superior's Vanish Extra thread in a longarm?

I'm planning to use it to baste a quilt. Want to try stabilizing the quilt on the longarm before I do the actual quilting. Also plan to use it to baste a quilt I intend to hand quilt.

What I am wondering about is using it as both the top thread and bobbin thread. I see on the Superior website that they recommend using Vanish Lite in the bobbin. While I'm sure that more of it will fit on the bobbin than the heavier weight water-soluble thread, I hate to spend so much money if I don't have to.

My machine is a Voyager 17. I'm hoping I can get the tensions loose enough to not break the thread.
