Cons: really bright fabric dyes might bleed onto the wall unless you're careful to wash it first and test the colorfastness. And the starch leaves a very thin film after you remove the fabric. Depending on how wipeable your paint finish is, it can wipe off. <br /><br />Stiffen stuff pros: no mess, easy to remove with no effect on your wall. (At least mine worked like that!) Cons: costs more. Could get cost prohibitive if you're doing huge pieces.Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-47938577237384700142013-09-03T02:10:42.021-05:002013-09-03T02:10:42.021-05:00On a whim I tried this with Spray-on starch which ...On a whim I tried this with Spray-on starch which you would use for ironing your clothes, but of course it didn't work (your clothes would stick to the ironing board, I imagine...). I'm not sure if I'll be able to find Stiffen Stuff here in Hawaii where I live, so I might just use your other cornstarch-no-heat tutorial. Do you have any pros and cons to which is better?
