I like it! No flaking! And works great! I buy it by the gallon and I have a couple small bottles. One I label "Full" strength and one I label "Half and Half" and mix with water. Sometimes I don't need it full strength, if I am just pressing to get my wrinkles out! I like the scents, but some people don't, so I carry an unscented bottle to classes with me.

I like this just as well if not better. Not that Mary Ellen's is a bad product I just prefer to save a little money.
If you haven't tried it, you might consider it. I was really pleased with it and use it all the time now. You get a lot more for the money. And with the economy the way it is, saving some dough is always a plus! :)

Timberlea ... I hear you on the Magic Sizing ... for some reason, they ship in their Spray Starch, but do not send the Sizing North of the 49.
I use it .... and whenever I hear of someone going cross-border shopping, I plead for them to bring some back with them.
My Sizing Stash is cherished almost as much or more than the fabric stash .... it can replaced, the sizing is a scarce commodity!

OK ... being that I know the value of Spray Sizing and hate the price of Best Press (higher $$$$ here in Canada, than you have in the USA), please do tell me more about the other products mentioned, namely ....
* Premium Faultless
* Faultless Maxx (thinking it's the same as the one above?)
* Linit Liquid Starch
* Stay-Flo Starch concenrate

I use the Sta flo concentrate in the recipe I posted above. I have had no instances of it flaking, caking, or showing on darker colors when used in this manner. I haven't had to look for it lately as the bottle I have has to be 4 years old. It goes a long way. I do believe I originally purchased it at my local WalMart but know I have seen it at other grocery and even places like the Ace Hardware. I make sure I shake the bottle well before spraying.

Niagra makes a non aersole spray, that I have used for several months now and I really like it....NO flakes...the only place I have found it is Target. Always have a full one on the shelf for a back-up.
