Product Information

The only inconvenience about this version is that it keeps settling so you need to shake the bottle before each spritz. Starch stiffens the fabric, so you want to iron along the natural folds of your clothes. If you don’t, you will create a new one, and the clothes might not hang right. Different Types of Spray Starch Starch helps prevent fraying. Spray starch also can extend the life of fabric because the stiffness helps prevent fraying.

Another alternative is using white vinegar mixed with water in a spray bottle, which can help remove wrinkles and add a bit of stiffness to the fabric. Just be sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area first in case it reacts badly with your fabric. Several ingredients aren’t even needed to starch your laundry— but are needed to make the product shelf stable for extendedperiods of time. These include sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, a synthetic skin conditioning agent; sodium nitrite, a corrosion inhibitor; polyethylene glycol, a solvent used to keep the solution moist; and ammonium hydroxide, a solution of ammonia in water used to adjust PH levels. Using starch, particularly on shirts gives you that very crisp, professionally pressed feel. And it’s not only the visual benefits that are good.

I do not use rubbing alcohol because it contains isopropyl alcohol plus water, denaturants, and artificial fragrance. The denaturants and artificial fragrance are poisonous and should only be used in well-ventilated areas. For these reasons I don’t want to heat rubbing alcohol with an iron and inhale the fumes. Vodka is just high purity ethanol mixed with water it dries odorless so you clothes do not smell like anything.Two questions, Bren: first, since corn starch (raw or cooked) is food, would it be risky to hang corn starched shirts in closets for a long time (like a months or more)?

Mix the cornstarch in the cold water and then add the boiling water. Some people substitute vodka for cold water because the cornstarch dissolves better. You can add a little fragrance, like essential oil if you want.In my experience the homemade version is the best spray starch for ironing! But make sure you spray thisright before you press the fabric, section by section. Leaving this DIY spray starch dry on your fabric without ironing it, might leave starch stains. Is spray starch necessary?

Although there are different types of spray starch, there are primarily two ingredients that matter: The nearer you spray the starch to the shirt, the stiffer the material will become, however, starch in itself can cause stains, so you want to spray it at least 10 inches or so away from the fabric, at least until you get used to using itMost of the times, not really! But let me tell you, it makes ironing so much easier! It keeps your fabric from moving around and helps to create crisp folds and seams. Plus it gives a professional look to your finished garment or project. What can you use as a substitute for spray starch? You may still see the stain when you wear the shirt, but it will come out more effortless in the wash.
