How well does the sheets of the sticky pallet paper work? I've been using the spray and it works fine. The thing I don't like about it is it turns your equipment all gooey.

Get the liquid tack. You pour it on and use a small plastic squeege to spread on a platen. Use the web spray adhesive for fleece. It doesn't get on everything.

Cover you platen with platen tape (masking tape wide enough to cover the platen like 18" wide tape) and then use a water base glue (thin this glue with 50% water). Put the glue in a bottle (we use an old dishwashing bottle). Squirt the glue on your taped platen and spread out evenly (we use a 3" paint roller to spread it on our platens). It works on all substrates and usually last longer than the aerosols. No mess, no fumes and it is very cheap compared to the sprays. When the glue on the platen has gotten to thick pull off the tape and replace it with new.
