Aqua Net as a basting spray?
#1
Has anyone ever used Aqua Net as a basting spray?
This is a posting from a person who wrote about the hair spray.
"I love 505, but it's expensive. After a recommendation, I tried Aqua Net (yes, the awful hairspray!) and it works great. You can reposition, it stays stuck, and there's no discoloration. The ingredients are also almost identical to 505...and it's less than two bucks for a HUGE can."

You must have read the same link. It was on iVillage :wink:
My only concern with the hair spray would be gumming up my sewing machine. It certainly would not be worth it, if that would happen.
Did you ever give it a try?

LOL! yeah, I always used to use hairspray on my chalk pastel, conte or charcoal drawings.
ETA: I never used the hair spray because ppl told me it really gums up the needle.
