    Default best Press
    I am making a tote with 2 1/2 in strips. I am spraying several ahead with \Best Press so they can dry some. If any dry completely before I press, will the Best Press still take out the wrinkles, or does it have to be damp? Thanks

    I've always pressed while damp. It seems like it does better when fresh. Is the issue that it is too wet? Try spreading the mist and see what happens!

    Yes, it is too damp. I didn't really spray, just squirted directly on wrinkles. Thanks for the hint.
