Kristjan, you can also use any wood glue, balsa right and balsaloc are just forms of this stuff. Brush a thin layer on the area you need to glue and LET IT DRY then try ironing on the plastic.

And

Just because you are a beginner, I have to ask; you HAVE REMOVED the clear backing sheet off of your iron on covering haven't you??? Not a dumb question, I've had THREE students show up at the flying field with covering applied this way. I have no idea how they get it to stick in the first place but you can do it.
