Make your own starch:
Get a spray bottle and fill full of water. Pour the (cold) water into a metal pan and add two tablespoons of corn starch and mix very well until all the lumps are out. Then heat on low heat until the solution starts to thicken, keep stiring as much as possible about five minutes (until it boils). Let cool overnight and use a funnel to add all of the liquid and residual starch into the spray bottle. Shake vigorously before spraying. I only put starch on the inside of the jeans because it will leave white flaky residue on your jeans.

After trying to spray my Wabash bib honeycomb just with water, in an effort to set the creases, I tried this today. Mike explained this to me years back and a quick search brought me here. I love how the forum has a wealth of knowledge on this kind of stuff. I'm excited to see how they turn out when dry. Baking in the sun now.

I've sprayed the front and back parts of the legs and bib after turning them inside out.
