505 works for me, too. I do my spray basting in the entry hall on the tile so if there is overspray, I just mop the floor when I'm done. The smell doesn't bother me.
I'm needing to make a practice piece to practice spiral FMQing and I"m thinking about using Elmer's for it just to get a feel for using it. If I like it, I may use it to baste a quilt I'm getting ready to sandwich.
