I went to Joann fabrics and bought 2 yards of the teflon material and put that over my ironing broad, just layed it on top, when I am sewing. Anything I spray gets sprayed on that so when I have to iron I take it off and my cover is good.

I have started soaking my fabric in a bowl with the concentrated starch that I mix up. if there is a little piece that needs to be starched i just use a small bowl or spray on the ironing board. but lately most the time i use the bowl method. it makes things go faster and less work and pain in my hands. used to spray in the bathroom but got tired of hubby complaining about the mess.

Same here. Don't have any problems with Best Press

I have an old large pillow case that I lay on my ironing board when I need to spray starch, when it gets too sticky I throw in in the washer.

I starch on my ironing board but I have two covers. So when one gets stiff I change it. Soak stiff one in amonia and hot water.

I had to laugh at the floor comment. If I don't get mine mopped today someone is liable to get stuck in the middle of the sewing room! I was starching quilt back last night and I can see starch spots all over it!

I starch mine over the bathtub.

I startch mine o the ironing board and when it starts getting stiff I throw it in the washer.

I don't use spray starch, I use the one Hancock's carries,in an atomizer bottle. That helps control where the starch goes. I also use a pillowcase over my ironing board. Easy to wash and dry, unlike a towel.
