Tried that. Stock transfers are not adhering to the denim. Hot peels are leaving most of the transfer behind, and they don't stick very well.

Try a higher temp and longer dwell time. We just use our laser light transfers on faded jeans using our normal shirt settings. Results looks great!

Printing transfers on denim is usually a hit or miss situation. There are many different types of denim...some will take a transfer print, others will not, Same with canvas bags.
