Question Heat transfer vinyl and tote bags

Hi everyone. I'm looking to expand my business and add custom totebags to my inventory. Does anyone have any advice as to which tote bag material/vinyl heat transfer works the best? Lets say you have a 100% cotton canvas tote, which heat transfer vinyl would work best on it? Or if I have a 600-denier polyester tote bag, which vinyl works the best on this material? I love my Roland GX-24, the only thing is finding the right vinyl to use on my products. If anyone has any experience with pressing vinyl on tote bags and doesn't mind sharing your experiences I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks!

plan_b, thanks for you input and for posting a sample photo! Do you mind if I ask which brand of glitter film you are using? That tote looks great!

TenaciousTees, thanks for the heads up! I'll be sure to check it out.

Much appreciated,
imci
