Got a customer wants me to put words ( thermoflex ) on a wrestling uniform made of spandex. Never did this before, has anyone have any suggestions how and what press setting is required ?

Thanks,

Don

Spandex and Lycra is the same think (almost). Using flex you should be fine but test it out. Im sure your garments are not 100% spandex are they ?

Yes Spandex will burn and melt. As my favorite Bot said though, do a test.

They're both just elastane, so I'm not sure where the almost fits in.
