Iron-on transfers are nice because they quickly and easily let you customize your wardrobe, but the problem is that they always end up looking like crap (peeling, cracking, fading, etc.) after you wash them a few times.

If you brushed a coat or two of clear fabric paint or textile medium over the iron-on transfer image after you ironed it on your shirt (or whatever), would that preserve the image and keep it looking good after repeated washings? Has anyone ever tried this? Does it work?

Thanks.
