Default Printing on Pleather

I have some pleather material, I'm trying to print on. The pleather will be worn in a ruff sporting event. I was wondering is there a special inks for this material.

I'm not positive ,though maybe plastisol with some catalyst in it? Worth a shot if you have some test material.

I think Ian is onto something Isreal. A catalyst like Nylo-bond may work, seeing as how pleather is a vinyl compound derived from ethylene, which is mixed with many forms of resins and plastics.
And what is Plastisol Ink? That's right, resins and plastic.

You may also want to test some vinyl ink from Nazdarฎ
Here's a link to the ink I'm referring to.
