Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I use the gallon refill?
- Pour Best Press into an empty or nearly empty Best Press spray bottle for direct use, or decant into any clean spray bottle. Shake well before each use.
- Is Best Press the same as traditional spray starch?
- Best Press is a fabric sizing, not a true starch. It provides similar crispness but with less flaking, no white residue, and it’s gentler on delicate fabrics than heavy spray starch.
- Does the scent-free version work as well as the scented versions?
- Yes — the formula is identical in performance. The scent-free version simply omits the fragrance, making it a great choice for allergy-sensitive sewists.
- Can I use Best Press on pre-washed quilting fabric?
- Absolutely. Best Press restores body to pre-washed fabric and is safe to use right before cutting and pressing your quilt blocks.
- How long does a gallon last?
- Usage varies by project, but most quilters find a gallon fills 4–6 standard Best Press bottles, providing months of regular use.
