Whether you're a novice or seasoned expert, our instructions will ensure you master the art of DTF transfers seamlessly. So, let's start the journey towards garment customization excellence!

Preparation: The Key to Perfection

Before diving into the application process, it’s imperative to preheat your garments. This crucial step removes any moisture, preventing the common issue of bubbling or loosening imprints from the fabric. Ensuring your material is prepped correctly is the foundation of a flawless finish.

Applying DTF Transfers: Step-by-Step

1. Position: Carefully place your DTF (Direct to Film) Transfer onto the surface of your product. Precision in alignment ensures a polished, professional look. This step is fundamental in translating your creative visions into reality.

2. Press: Utilize your heat press to apply medium pressure at 320°F / 160°C for a duration of 15 seconds. This specific temperature and time frame have been optimized for the perfect fusion of transfer and fabric, guaranteeing a vibrant and enduring design.

3. Peel: Allow the transfer to cool for at least 15 seconds before peeling. This cooling period is crucial for ensuring the transfer has adequately adhered to the fabric, making the peeling process smooth and the design's placement impeccable.

Enhancing Durability: A Finishing Touch

To further ensure the longevity of your design, consider repressing the fabric with an additional garment or Teflon sheet. This optional step seals the transfer onto the fabric, catering to preferences ranging from a smooth, rubber-like finish to a more textured appearance that boasts durability.
