Default Need help. Options for Refletive Printing, what would you do?

Hello everyone,
I have a question for the group, I have a customer who wants garments (sweatshirts and Ts) for his towing company. He does not want Safety garments with the tape pre-installed, he wants his logo on front and back in reflective.
I know my options, screen print with reflective ink, spectra reflect heat applied and reflective transfers.
My question is what is best?
The design is 2 color.
Spectra Reflect seems to chew up my cutting blade (he wants 70 total garments)
I have never seen transfer express reflective, is it any good?
I don't think screen printing will work because you cant flash reflective ink, and the job is 2 color.
I know cad cut like spectra reflect would be the best for reflectiveness but I don't want to change blades every 4 shirts.
Which leads me to the question, how much would you charge for this job done with spectra reflective? I think the price is going to drive him to another option like getting saftey shirts and letting me do normal screen printing on them.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Auggie
