Where do you get silicone spray? Can you post a picture of the can?

I bought one a could tell the difference immediately! My slider is bigger than the bed of my machine, so I just let it lay over the end and the side, and taped it down with painters tape.

I have one, and it works great, but you do have to be careful not to stich it. i forgot to tape it down and it did get caught and rolled after the second use. but after my little incident it still works. when ever i FMQ ( still learning) i use it.

I have the clear vinyl taped over my cardboard "quilting" table and I spray the silicone spray all over it. It truly does work great.

I love, love , love my supreme slider. There are 2 different sizes. I have the smaller one but would love to have the large one. I don't FMQ without it. I find my quilt slides better and my FMQ looks so much better. I also find my shoulders don't get as tired. I would be interested in comments on the silicone spray. Sound interesting. I also love the machingers gloves. I feel they were both worth every penny I paid for them.

I made a small slider from a clear plastic sheet--used to cut veggies on--that I got at the Dollar Store. Cut a hole and put tape around it under the pressure foot.

I asked for one for Christmas and got it but haven't used it yet.

I purchased one from my sewing machine store. It was REALLY expensive. I find that it slows me down. The edge of it gets caught on the quilt as I move it around and I spend a lot of time unrolling it from under my quilt to avoid having it stitched up with my quilt.
I've found that I much prefer putting a layer of Glad Press and Seal. It slides so nice. Just remove it after a day or two, so the sticky stuff doesn't stay on your machine.

I can't say enough praise about the Suprme Slider! I love it!! I had tried FMQ for years & just couldn't get my hands & braint to work together. I bought the Slider after seeing it demoed about 10 yrs ago, what a difference! FMQ just snapped together in my brain & hands, I used it for months until I wore it out (yes I did sew thru it a couple of time because I was just going full speed). I was going to buy another when I realized I could FMQ without it, the connection brain/hand had been made because of the SS. Not to be immodest but I get much praise for my quilting, people assume I have a long arm machine but I just use my Brother 1500. It was the SS that gave me the ability.
