Dark fabric iron on paper sticks to wax paper instead of fabric

Not sure if I'm just doing something wrong, or if this paper is just no good. I'm using a dark fabric iron on transfer to make eyes for a plush, based on this tutorial. However, for some reason the transfer sheet keeps sticking to the wax paper instead of the fabric. Has this ever happened to anyone and might you know what was causing this? My paper's instruction says to use the highest heat on the iron. I considered that maybe my iron is hotter than what was expected by the paper's manufacturer, but even if I already turned down the heat by half this is still happening. submitted by /u/D-A-Orochi [link] [comments]
