Good stuff so long as it is the aerosol one, the non toxic stuff in the pump bottle is not fit for purpose.
My favourite is their Unique hand applied lube it is every bit as good as Imperial but a lot cheaper. I have also heard that it can be thinned and applied with a pump.

Which ever is easier to apply and has less waste.

Personally I would recommend the Unique, a dab on your fingers and just rub the case sides, not the shoulder before putting into the FL size die.
Where the spray scores is if you are using a progressive, just stand up your cases give them a spray from all angles and they are ready to go and it a stage less to worry about when you get going. It is a spray tough and there has to be waste with over spray.
All lubes need removing before shooting the round, I just wipe the Unique off with a paper towel when it is resized and pop in the block ready for the next stage.
Unique is cheaper too.

Buy the Unique. Forget the spray.
