Was just wondering if the UV inks we have been using on vinyl, to print bumper stickers, can also be used on nylon bags?

No.UV inks formulated for vinyl do not work on nylon bags. UV inks are a skin irritant so don't use them on any fabric that comes in contact with skin. The nylon bags typically also have a waterproof coating sprayed on them...it rejects most inks as well as water. You need to use heat-set plastisol with 10% Nylobond catalyst added to it. Dry them at 300f for two minutes thru a conveyor dryer with good air flow.
