Thanks Michael for the info.
I applied large vinyl lettering to a 3x5 nylon flag. Im a little worried about it
since it will be used outside.
When I ordered the vinyl from signwarehouse They advised that it will work on
the nylon flag. I would have used a heat applied film but I needed a certain color.

I would be sure to inform the client that his lettering on the nylon
flag - could be "gone with the wind". If the flag is hanging where it get
a strong breeze as it flops in the breeze the lettering will probally come
loose. Not knowing the exact vinyl and the nylon I cannot be sure but, from
my exprience normal sign vinyl does not do well on nylon.

Good luck

Thank You for that info.
I had that suspision that it may fall apart.
I was trying to give the customer the colors he wanted.
Would a heat press film work ok?

I do not have any real experience with the heat press film. I have seen it
used on shirts & other cloth but I really do not have any experience with it.
Sorry

Vinyl WILL NOT stay on the flag! As far as heatpress material, Thermo-flex Universal. That is the only material I know of that will stay on. John
