Default plastisol+swarovski crystal=bad idea?

Hey everyone i would like to know if their is anyway to safely use hotfix swarovski crystals (or any combination of plastisol based inks and crystals) on hoodies t-shirts etc.... that have plastisol based graphics judging from the information i have gathered thus far through research on this forum and other sources i would say no due to the temperatures at which crystals are usually applied to shirts the reason i am asking is because i am interested in the opaqueness/boldness of plastisol inks vs water based especially sense more then a few of my garments are in darker colors i.e. navy blue brown black, etc........

Cheers

Hotfix on the fabric not the plastisol, as they will come off.
