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+...

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.

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.
