Aleene's 15581 Stiffen-quick Fabric Stiffening Spray (8oz),transparent, 236 ml

I buy this product often. I absolutely love it. So easy to use. It's great for my soft shirts to give the collars the shape i like. Very effective, value for money as loads of use in one bottle!

I had to out two coats on but once dried, it was exactly what I wanted. Good product.

I used this to stiffen my macrame pieces. It took a bit of trial and error to get it to work with macrame, but once I figured it out, it worked well. First thing to say is it is not quick drying at all, the peice you are trying to stiffen needs to be kept in a nice warm place to stiffen within a reasonable amount of time (about 4-6 hours). When we've had nice weather I've left it to dry in the sun, but if its a bit gloomy outside, I find I need at least 24h for it set (it's currently summer so don't have the radiators on, but I imagine in the winter a radiator might help with quicker drying). I tried using a hairdryer, and a heat gun to dry my peices quicker but neither worked. Only thing which seems to dry them is good old time and patience. In terms of setting macrame project, the way I found works best is firstly to make sure your item is on a flat surface. Secondly to really saturate the cord you want to stiffen - not just a few good sprays, it needs to be soaked (but not dripping). Thirdly, you need a good brush to brush out the macrame - I use a cheap bog standard pet hair brush. It is worth noting when I sprayed the stiffener on the macrame cord, I got different reactions from different brands. Some brands curled up, so I had to give them a good brushing out again, and I found if I hadn't saturated the cord enough, it would keep curling back up until I saturated the cord with more stiffener. Thought it was worth mentioning this as seen some bad reviews from people who experienced this. Overall, once I'd figured it out it worked well and the stiffener holds really well over time

Excellent does exactly what it’s supposed to do to your hats felt at

I wanted a product that would work on a home crafted Autum wreath. I have now applied this 3 times. 1st air dried, 2nd &3rd dried with a hairdryer. It has made the material slightly crunchy but has not stiffened them nor do I believe it has made them water proof. My search continues. Would not reccommend.

I read a lot of reviews and looked on YouTube before buying this product as I wasn’t sure it would work for what I wanted. I have made a woven basket using jute rope and teddy yarn, the teddy yarn is so cuddly but makes it softer than usual so I wanted something to stiffen from the inside. Omg this worked amazingly after just one coat the difference was amazing, I sprayed a reasonable layer on until felt damp then left to dry and the results were fab. So much more sturdy so pleased and good size bottle will get several baskets out of this one bottle. Will definitely buy again.

Made a floppy brim of a straw had stand up like a cow boy hat . I put a stitch in it to hold the shape then sprayed , let it dry and resprayed a few times . I am very impressed for the price and ease .

I used this to stiffen a hat and applied several layers letting each one dry. The result was very reasonable. Can't really comment on how long the stiffening will last - I supose unil the hat gets damp. I would have liked it to be more permanent. Worthwhile to remember to clean out the spray applicator after each use (by spraying clean water)
