Try using a little acetone on the area where you are placing the names first.

You can try using alcohol but that may not work.....it's not the same as waterproof material where alcohol will do the trick. We've found that you either need to go with a direct print or embroidery on teflon coated items, not transfers. If you use Stahls' or cut your own transfers using their materials, try Gorilla Grip. It is designed for smooth nylon fabrics, but it may be the only transfer that will adhere to your material. Hope this helps, David ---------------------- David W. Stern Wolf Head Athletic Inc.

It will not stick to the apron... They will adhere to a 100% cotton t-shirt... is it the Teflon? What do I do? Should I wipe the aprons with alcohol prior? I can't leave tonight until this job is done. I wanna go home. Please and Thank you! --Scott D.
