Does this work for anyone on flock?

I gave it a go last week on a returned Hoodie and it just apppeared to take the top layer off, leaving the rest behind. I would be interested to know if anyone has got t to work on flock as I have a few hoodies here that supposedly went missing in the post only to be returned as never collected form the sorting office and it would be intersting to see if they could be reused at all.

It does leave a mark, but if you can cover that part over with flock then you won't see it :roll:

Thanks I will have another go. The hoodies are very popular colours and sizes, so sooner or later one is going to be wanted with a large logo on the front covering what is to come off.
Trouble with the flock was that it only removed the top layer, leaving the rest behind. I will have another go when I get a chance though.

Not tried it on flock but I found the liquid remover worked better than the spray. If I get chance tomorrow I'll do a flock sample and try it

I never tryed this myself but I thought you need to spray it from "inside" :idea:

Where is the liquid remover from?

I have the spray from xpres works great on some thing but turns some to glue and it looks like mented chewing gum.

Do you wash the garment before re applying vinyl? I have in the past as I wasnt sure if you could reapply vinyl straight on top if there was any residue left.

So long as the garment is dry you should be able to go straight on over the top. If this happens just press the garment for a few seconds to remove any liquid (spray) residue from the material and you're safe to re-appply. No need to wash everytime.

Thats good as I have a whole batch here that I made and forgot to put the'n' in Cornwall :oops:

Do you stock the liquiid Martin? If so do you have a preference with either the spray or liquid?

I have some spray at the mo but by the time i finish this batch I shall be needing more.

No we don't do a liquid. Using vast quantities of the spray though forms a puddle :D Probably used to them in Cornall though! As a Cornishman I can probably get away with that ;)
