Fabric glue should work well on a waxed canvas.

Les, they are the original WTB dirtdrops from way back. I think I bought them 
new in the late eighties or early nineties. They are heat treated so I am 
pretty sure Nitto made them. I like them ok. I have gone through a bunch of 
bars, and still haven't found the perfect one yet. My perfect bar? I want the 
sweep back of the Noodle, combined with a shallow drop that has a wide flare 
such as the WTB, and with the flats and drops near parallel. Oh, and wide! Not 
Crust bar wide, but wide. And electronic anti-carpal tunnel devices...as long 
as I am wishing.

I don't have the bag, but since it's waxed, I wouldn't do it.  You need the 
iron hot--hot enough to melt the glue on the patch so that it bonds with 
the material-- which I imagine would be hot enough to damage the wax.  

I've done lots of iron on patches and they do work very well, as long as 
well applied (heat up the material receiving the patch first, then put lots 
of pressure and lots of heat.  Then, I put a little more pressure and heat 
around the edges.  Works well, but I wouldn't do it on a waxed bag.

I have used Shoe Goo silicone adhesive, then stitched the patch down at a 
couple strategic places.  The Speedy Stitcher works great for that sort of 
thing.

[Thomas McCause]

put a dry towel over the patch and bag before ironing.  I did this when 
putting a patch onto a waxed satchel and it worked with no mess.  I did sew 
it in place once I had it ironed where I wanted it to be though...YMMV

[John Bokman]

I have ironed-on a patch to my waxed Baggins Adam saddlebag. It was a bit 
tricky. Wanted to slide around as the wax melted. I would think stitches 
would be better for a long-term relationship, although the patch has stayed 
put for a month now.
