Can you heat press microfiber? I was on Broders looking at outerwear. I'm just getting into heatpressing so I'm lost. there's nylon, microfiber, fleece, etc. What would work for heat pressing other than cotton/poly? Thanks!

it depends on the texture of the microfiber, i have done microfiber sport bags and brief case. u can do spandex, polyester denier, silk with caution. there are a lot of items that vinyl can be used on. another one is spandex. with different vinyl formulation, meaning normally if u pick the correct vinyl for the material ur working with, there shouldn't be a problem.
