Bounce Ironing Spray works awesome!!!!!!!!!
I just tried this product and am totally amazed how well it works in place of starch. I like to use starch on my fabric before cutting out my pieces....living in Canada purchasing starch is non existent except for aerosol starch. I have friends that go to the states and bring me back Sta Flo....which I love. But in between their visits to the states I will be using Bounce Ironing Spray. Give it a try I'm sure you will all be impressed and the price is good too.

Does it smell like Bounce?
|
I bought some last week and tried it--there was a $1 coupon on the bottle :) It does work pretty well and leaves a Bounce/Febreze scent behind.
|
Ladies at our guild were using this yesterday. They seemed to really like it so next time I go to Walmart I plan on getting some to try it out.
|
I was sent a free sample and liked it a lot. I went to Walmart and bought a case of of 12 bottles. I knew the price would only increase later on and it did. I think it has a lighter scent then Best Press. A guild member is very sensitive to scents and the Bounce spray doesn't bother her.
|
First time I've heard of this product. Is it in a spray pump bottle? May in Jersey
|
I use niagara that comes in a spray bottle, will have to look for this
|
Is the scent really strong? I do not want to get an allergy attack.
|
I think its pretty pricey but still less than best press !

How stiff does it make the fabric?
|
I have been looking for this product for months. I have checked several Wal-Marts, Targets, Walgrens, etc--can't find it any where.
|
I will have to see if I can find it somewhere to try. I do like the Best Press but it is pricey. Hopefully I can find it and it won't be too "scenty"
|
Never heard of it. I'll have to give it a try ... thanks!

You folks on the QB turned me on to the merits of starch/Best Press, etc. Found a bottle of the Bounce and used it for the first time last week. VERY helpful. Think I paid about $3.49 at our local WalMartm which still makes it about half the price of Best Press at my LQS. Personally, I'd prefer a little less scent but it isn't obnoxious.
|
Haven't heard of this, I'll have to check it out. Thanks!!!!
|
I'm not allergic, but I really hate to buy products that are scented. Why do manufacturers do this?

I agree with you! I tried the product a month or so ago and have been using it ever since. I think it leaves the fabric nice and solid for cutting and piecing. I also like that it is a spray bottle and non-aerosol. The smell is pleasant and not over powering. The Downy wrinkle release works too, but I prefer the Bounce spray.
|
I like best press diluted with some water in a 3 oz travel hair spray bottle for pressing when piecing but will look into this product for pressing fabric after washing.
|
Have never heard of it. Wish I had known about it today, was at WalMart and would have looked for it.
|
Very interesting. I was curious so I googled, and came across this:
"Bounce Ironing Spray contains patented polymers. The polymers also pull humidity from the air while you wear your clothing, relaxing the fabric and preventing wrinkles from returning. It is safe on all fabrics." I asked my husband (the walking encyclopedia) what a polymer is, and he replied that it's a plastic, like Flubber. I'll have to do some digging, see if I can get a free sample too! |
I finally found Bounce spray at Walmart, they finally got it in.. I looked and looked in every store for a long time. Now that I got it, it is good. Not crazy about the scent but no problems or complaints. I still like Mary Ellen Press better, it has a better scent and just so crisp! I would probably buy Bounce again, especially if ME's is not on sale.
|
So what are the contents? I am a package reader, because of my allergies. Is it an aerosol or a pump sprayer? I am not into all those chemicals, so will have to look for it and read the ingredients before I jump in and buy it.
|
I'm gain! I will check out our local Walmart (ugh) and see if I can find it. What department? I said "ugh" because our Walmart is huge and parking is a bear and even if you only want one item, you are there for 45 minutes. I try to steer clear of Walmart unless it's 7 am or 10 pm.
|
it works sooo great and with the dollar off coupon its only 1.50 or little over
|
I don't know about Bounce but Best Press has a no scent, which I use if the quilt is going to someone with allergies or may have allergies.

I don't think the smell is too over powering. Bev |
When I bought the Bounce spray I paid $1.87 per bottle. It was a new promotional item at Walmart so the price was low then. Seems it has almost doubled in price. I'm glad I bought a case at that low price. I got a coupon for a free bottle on the Bounce facebook site when it first came out. Coupons always better on the brands facebook page.

I haven't tried or even heard of the Bounce spray. It sounds pretty good.
I have a suggestion for your dilemma with living in Canada. A number of people on the board make their own starch and swear by it. It is less expensive than any starch, including Sta-Flo. Hope this helps. You can always do more searching because there were a lot more listings about starch. Just use starch, corn starch or spray starch for search term. Hope this helps! http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...de-t53662.html http://debsquiltsandthings.blogspot....Spray%20Starch http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...h-t157146.html |
This might be helpful. And for those who asked .. it's a pump!! Thank You Bounce - I refuse to use aerosol. I'll have to check this product out (I'm currently a Best Press user - I dilute it 60%BP 40% water and I buy BP by the gallon as it's cheaper that way).

I have mixed Best Press with Bounce spray and have mixed starch with the Bounce and have mixed all three together. I have wonderful degrees of crispness! |

I've tried it too and liked it. I didn't like the bottle it came in as it sprayed a stream so I switched it to a misting bottle and now it works much better. Smells do bother me but this didn't.
|
The bottles I have of it has a stream, spray and off setting.

I'll have to try that. The starch I have is older and tries to leave a white film, not pretty at all.
|
