Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is Scent Free the studio default?
- Shared air — classes, retreat rooms, and multi-person studios can't poll everyone's fragrance tolerance, and client quilts shouldn't arrive smelling like the studio's scent choice. Neutral is the professional setting; the scented gallons are personal-studio luxuries.
- Best Press over spray starch — the case?
- Residue — traditional starch flakes white on darks, gums iron soles, and builds up in fabric; Best Press stiffens and conditions without any of it. For precision piecing, the crisp-without-consequences trade is the whole product.
- Where does pressing spray matter most?
- Piecing accuracy — crisped fabric cuts truer, seams press flatter, and blocks square up more precisely; many piecers treat yardage before the first cut and credit the spray for flat quilts.
- Gallon economics?
- Studios refill quart bottles from the jug at a fraction of retail-bottle cost — an active studio's monthly consumption makes the gallon the only sensible format.
- The reservoir warning?
- Spray-on only — never into the iron's water tank; it's a fabric treatment, not an iron additive.
