I have used the 505 spray for years, for emb. I use the 505 in the red and tan can, it is temporary spray.
Now I made a tube out of card stock to fit onside of the hoop and then spray inside the hooped backing to keep from spraying my hoop.
Then I place my garment inside the hooped area and sew. You can also un-hoop your sprayed backing and place your garment over the sprayed area and re-hoop. I have not had a transfer of spray on to the garment and my hoop stays clean and not sticky.

Nicely done. I am no expert and I really enjoyed the tip. I've tried this before, but mines never came out centered because I did not mark the center and it came to mind to do so. Thanks for the tip.

Depending on what type of machine you have-this sounds like the perfect occasion for "endless embroidery". Some machines have a special hoop and designs that are set up with markings for rehooping so you can continue a border without breaks in the design.
