Have a small order of 100% polyester work coats where the fabric is "waterproof". Two color left chest with a flash - any issues regarding adherence?

How small of an order? I opt for heat seal on some jobs like this, especially with lined jackets for which I don't have a hold-down. I have had pretty good luck with adhesion this way.
Keep in mind that any suggestions to remove the waterproofing with a solvent also mean that you will be removing the waterproofing ability of the jacket in that spot. I have always thought that may defeat the purpose of a waterproofed jacket, so always warn the client.
Same issue sometimes with embroidery.
btw could you link to the jacket?

Just a 10 piece - won't require a hold-down as there's a zipper on the inside that allows access to the outer shell. Jacket is SanMar Cornerstone CSJ24 in safety yellow.

Well, as I said, for only ten I'd consider heat seal, depending on the design, either straight cad-cut, or print and cut.
