The only one for me is 505--No bad fumes--Sprays great--Lasts through several quilts--Worth every penny.
I buy it from Frabic.com and Connecting Threads. With fabric.com I usually buy 2 cans at a time when they have a discount of 15% off your total order. I just bought some and it came out to $11.03 a can. Worth every penny.
I did alot of research prior to buying this brand and it is hands down the best one out there.

I find that the $4.99 one that you can buy in the cheap craft shops is just as effective as the ones that sell in the quilting shops for $35. As soon as 'art' or 'quilt' is put on any label, the price seems to quadruple+...

Joann's sells 505 online.

I use 505. Got a couple of others, but like the 505 the best. I don't use spray much but when I do want it to be a good experience.

I loved the 505 but have switched to KK100. NO SMELL!!

I went to that link and the shipping is $10.49 Wow! Is there a cheaper one out there?

Me too. 505 is the best.

I use the Elmer's also. It works great and so-o-o much cheaper then the 505. It might have a bit stronger smell, but for the price I can put up with it. I've used it a number of quilts and love it. I don't get along with pins (if there is one around it will pick me) so this works great.

This fast-tack acid-free spray adhesive creates a temporary or permanent bond and resists bleed-through for more professional results. Great for adhering lightweight materials such as photos, paper, fabrics, cork, leather, canvas, foam, foil, films, cardboard, and felt.

I read to follow the directions for a temporary bond. I just sprayed it and then applied the batting and the batting is pretty stuck to the fabric. It is re-positionable for a day or two. I also press the whole thing together, which I think makes it a permanent bond.

I use only 505. I don't care for June Tailor.
