Default Heat Transfer Vinyl on Mousepads?

Is it possible to transfer a heat press cad cut vinyl onto a mousepad? I have seen some mouse pads that appear to have a "cloth" surface. If so, where would you get the blank mousepads? Or do they have to be done via sublimation print or some other method?

you could print on the mouse pads...probably best place to get blanks is from a dye sub source...but I am not sure that is a good way to go because the vinyl is ontop of the pad..not part of it and running the mouse over it would be noticeable...

Craig,

You can do ninyl on mousepads. I have done several. I got mine from bestblankcom. BLANK Mouse Pads: Manufacturer - 7 Colors In Stock!

the vinyl adheres just fine. As a matter of fact you do not have to worry about the vinyl shrinking during the heating that you can get when applying to shirts.

Great site! The heat pressed coasters would make a great low cost self-promo item.
