Dissolvable Liquid Starch Powder Mix. Makes 128 Oz Liquid Starch. Perfect For Stiffening Fabric, Removing Wrinkles, Laundry & Ironing. Ideal for Arts and Crafts, Paper Mâché, Playdough (1 Pack)

I used this for ironing pants and shirts. It does provide a nice starch solution to spray on the clothes before ironing them and does give a nice stiff form. Just remember to not put the iron on high. I actually put my iron on a fairly low setting. I had it on a higher setting early on and it did leave a starchy particle where I was ironing. The solution works well and as good a starch bought that is premixed in a spray can.

I got this to try for quilting because Best Press is expensive. I mixed this at half the strength recommended on the label for spray starch: I used 1/2 teaspoon of starch to 16 ounces of water. I dissolved it in about 1/4 cup hot tap water first and then diluted it. I used a pump spray bottle. It clogged the finest mist right away, so I had to go up to a slightly larger mist setting. I sprayed on the BACK of my fabric and ironed. I’m very pleased so far. It definitely stiffened and stabilized the fabric, but not too heavy. No sticking to the iron. The heavier you wet the fabric, the more body you will get after ironing. I recommend putting a piece of muslin over your ironing board if you don’t have a removable and washable cover. It will help prevent spray build up over time.

N O problem with this product. Easier than the liquid.

Product worked great as a stiffner

I bought a gallon garden sprayer to dilate the starch in—a small amount at a time. I didn’t know how far it would go as I was experimenting I set up a station outside With the sprayer the starch was easy to apply to my fabric yardage After drying and ironing, the fabric was as stiff as I wanted it to be I will continue to use this product

A little bit goes a long way. If you use too much, it gets clumpy and stiff. It also does not fully dissolve.

Great for fabric. Clothes look crisp and new.

Don't purchase this product, it was AWFUL. Did not dissolve and left residue on my fabric. Ended up washing the fabric in hot water to get rid of the residue.

Works well

Good

Hey there! I hope this review helps you out. I tried both the spray and wash method, and here’s what I found. I mixed one teaspoon of starch with 12 ounces of water, and adjusted the nozzle of my spray bottle to shoot a more concentrated jet than a mist. I laid the jeans flat on their side to make the crease I wanted, and soaked that edge as much as I could. I let it settle to avoid flaking, ironed it, and then sprayed and ironed it again. I let them hang to dry overnight, and here’s how they turned out. The crease was pretty sharp, but the starch wasn’t evenly distributed and soaked into the jeans. The next day, I washed 7 pairs of jeans in 3/4 cups of starch. I put the load on the quick wash cycle, which is about 20 minutes in my machine. Once it was done, I ironed them damp, and let them hang to dry. The jeans had soaked up all the starch, which is what I wanted. But I left them out for an entire day and night, and they were still damp in some places like the crotch or waist. I would recommend leaving them outside if the weather permits, or with a fan blowing at them if you want a faster dry. I probably should have even flipped them. As you can see from the second and third photos (same pair of jeans), they’re much crispier, and the creases will probably last longer. If you want a lighter starch, I would recommend using the spray technique, which is what I’ll do for my denim shirts. If you’re like me and you like a heavy starch on your jeans, I would wash them in the starch and let them hang to dry. If I was really a man, I would also spray and re-iron them once they have dried. It’s worth noting that your washing machine will be left with some starch residue, especially since I have a front-loading machine. The spraying method is also quite sticky and messy, so be careful not to burn yourself while ironing. Overall, one bag will probably last me at least a week’s worth of shirts and jeans, and it comes in at the same price as a dry cleaner would charge for starching a single pair of jeans. Don’t expect your jeans to stand up straight on their own, or have that nice white crease after the first time, but I have no dry cleaners near me with proper starching products and equipment. This beats all the other homemade products, and if you’re willing to spend some time on a Sunday, it’s well worth buying.

I’ve used this brand successfully for quilting for over a year. Unlike liquids, this pouch takes up no room, it goes a long way, and I can change the starch strength as needed. The bottle does need to be shaken before use because the liquid does separate. However, the price is insane at twice the cost - it was 454g for the same price as this one at 227g.

Hated it. Doesnt dissolve in water and leave mess on the fabric.
