I did a search and know there are special vinyls, inks, and methods to use for lettering on this material, but this is very short notice.

Before I tell my customer no, has anyone successfully used hp vinyl and got it to stick?
This would just be a 12" oval logo, but it's three colors so it would need printed.

In stock, I have oracal 3651 calendar, and 3751 cast. Also some Specialty Materials color print T-shirt material that would require using my heat press to apply.

I'm guessing some of these might work "once" and start coming off.

Thank you for any insight.
Tony

I think, if you apply some Ti-Cote onto the vinyl first, it'll stick OK. It dries clear, so shouldn't really show.

Wait for some other input; but I believe others have done this also.

Tony,

I have used 3751 and heat gun applied it with success. I haven't checked for a while but the customer hasn't called and said it was coming off!
