    Default Heat and Bond Vinyl?

    Have any of you used this iron-on vinyl to laminate fabric? I've thought that if it works, it would be useful in purses and e-reader totes, etc. If you, like myself, have not seen this product before, here are links to a tutorial and product. Thanks in advance for your comments and experience.

    Thanks for the links - I haven't tried this product so found the information useful.

    I used it on the bottom and lower sides of a bag I made. I carry the bag daily so it gets a lot of wear. I use the bag as my purse and also my gym bag, to carry folders for work, and more. The vinyl initially looked fabulous. It was easy to use, too. However, with wear, it is peeling and shredding. I think I notice it more than anyone else (who really looks?) but I don't know that I'd do it again.
