what kind of spray basting is the best?

I have a question, what kind of spray basting is the best? I want one that does not cause my needle to gum up. Thank you for any response to my question.

I really like 505 spray. Does not gum up the machine at all and holds well even struggling with a larger quilt.

I have had success with 505, June Tailor and Sullivan's. None of these gummed up my needle and all held well. I'd say Sullivan's was the least stinky. June Tailor is the least expensive.

the only one I have really good luck with is 505 spray. I have done several King size quilts no issues. It really holds well.

I have used several. Of those I've used, 505 is my favorite. There is a newer web-type spray that may be even better, but I don't have the name of it handy.
