Hi i currently make bags with images on and ive been using a standard transfer paper and applying it with a iron we are getting a heat press in september but untill then im stuck with the iron my roblem is that my customersare reporting that the transfer is peeling a few days after they started using it i was hoping some one could suggest a good transfer paper i can use with these tools ive tryed vinyl sublimination and thought it worked great for my item but my suppliers havnty been very reliable im experimenting with fusible cotton but any ideas would be great, the images are usually photos or art work i have tryed 2 or 3 standard transfer papers and varied the tempretures but i really need a reliable product until i can get the heat press in and subliminate the items thanks

It's the iron that's the problem, you're not getting enough pressure on with it.

When you get the heat press, it will be much better :)
