505 Basting Gone Wrong
I picked up a can of the 505 to try for the first time yesterday. Spent the last hour setting everything up & began spraying. I've never used it before, so I needed everything ready. Got about 1/2 way of just the backing to the batting & the can won't spray anymore! It's still full. I ran the top under hot water, air flows through fine, put it back on but nothing comes out when depressed. What do I do now? Store won't open for another 4 hours... Any suggestions would help!

I would take the can back to the store. But you are not in trouble, you can just start spraying where you left off. Not a problem. You can place the batting down and if it is not correct place, you can re position it , works great.

The way I spray is to lay my quilt layers dry, then peel back about half the top layer and spray on the exposed batting. Then I roll the top back into place, smoothing as I go. Repeat from the other side, with the other half of the top. Then flip over and repeat the whole process for the backing.
