I've used it but just used Magic Sizing for the first time yesterday. I liked it a lot.

Thank you so much for sharing - never heard of this one before!

I love the results but for some reason it chokes me (maybe it was just the scent I had) and I don't have any respiratory issue. I can use spray starch with no problem. A quilt friend has asthma and can use only the unscented.

I finally found Bounce spray! Walmart in our area finally has it! I love the smell of Best Press so
much better than Bounce spray! However the price of Bounce is much less expensive. I will probably stick to Best Press.

I like it better than anything I have tried. I buy it in the largest bottle I can find (no sprayer) and put it in a spare spray bottle. I have tried the vodka & water, it didn't add enough body for me. Tried cornstarch and water, it worked okay, but read that the cornstarch can draw silverfish and miller's moth. So I bit the bullet and use Best Press, my quilting projects are worth the expense. l

I love it, it is pricey though! I use a 'fabric finishing' spray I purchase at the grocers and it performs just as well.

How does BP and the vodka recipe compare to the stiffness of fabric you get with using starch?

I had never tried Best Press until I read about it here. Got a small bottle, because it was so expensive, and what if I hated it? Unfortunately, I LOVE it. I am looking into bulk on Amazon....
