I've heard of Best Press but not tried it as I haven't seen it in the store. Whocarries it?
Our Hancock Fabrics sells it, but I make mine with the recipe listed previously with vodka and water.

I like my vodka straight up and yes, it does work wonderfully.:D

Mostly LQS carry Best Press. I love the Vodka mix without the lavendar. Then you could drink or starch depending on the need...lol

The Niagara non aerosol spray is a great substitute for Bet Press.

You can now also get Bounce spray in Wal-Mart that works really well also. I have tried them all, like them in this order.......Best Press, Bonce spray......then Niagra non-aresol.

Joann's online carries best press as well and you can use your coupons to get the gallon jugs

I make my own starch..

1 C. Stay flo starch ( blue bottle- got mine at walmart- laundry section)
1 C. Water ( any water or distilled)
1 C. Febreeze ( i use lavender scent)

Mix it really well and pour in a spray bottle- I used an empty Best press Spray bottle..

Never thought of adding Febreeze for scent to my Sta-Flo. Thanks for the hint.
