Default What would be the best vinyl to use on koozies

I need to make some koozies for a wedding, pretty simple they just want a monogram, but what do I use. I have a heat press and a vinyl cutter. Oh yeah, they are the round ones.
Thanks,
R

round ones? they aren't the triangular koozies? hehe just kidding, but seriously, do they make koozies in different shapes?

I'm not really being any help here, but I would like to know the procedure too cause this sounds like a great market for my area as the University of Florida has now been deemed the Number 1 party school in America.

if the British don't know what koozies are, then I highly recommend you start making them and selling them!

haha , a koozie is a soft cover for a cold drink, like a canned or bottled beer, to keep that drink nice and cool. they are big marketers cause they are easy to print on.

We use Thermoflex on the ones we sell for the wet suit type. We have been selling these for 3 years now and they are great.

You just cut thermoflex and then heat press it on the koozies? Where do you purchase your koozies from?

Default Re: What would be the best vinyl to use on koozies

Thanks for the posts, I just meant they weren't the collapsable kind when I posted they were round. I tried a couple last night and I think I can make it work, I just need to get some heat tape so that I don't have to try and hold the design and pull the press down on them at the same time.
Thanks for the help!

We just did a batch for a golf tournament.
We used the flat version from www.debcosolutions.com Neoprene.
We used Fashion Film from www.Stahls.com . We pressed at 160 for 20s, peeled cold, pressed for 5. I had parchment paper on the upper platen for protection.

not sure but you would get better results to your answer if you posted a new thread in the forum labeled "Does anyone know what font this is?", rather than posting in a thread talking about vinyl applications for koozies.
