DTF Transfer Application Instructions
- Heat your press to 320-330° F depending on your press. We recommend starting with a lower temp and going to a higher temp if needed. Some presses run hot, some have cold spots. We recommend testing your press in multiple areas with a heat gun and practicing with extra transfers to find your "sweet spot”.
- Roll your garment with a fabric roller to remove as much lint as possible. Pre-press the shirt or material for 5 seconds before adding the transfer to remove moisture.
- Lay the transfer down flat with the ink facing the material. The image should be facing you.
- Press with extremely heavy pressure for 30 seconds.
- Remove from heat press and after 15 seconds peel the transfer film off of the shirt for a seamless peel.
- Place substrate back onto heat press & cover the design with a Teflon sheet or Butcher paper. Press for 30 more seconds to ensure the transfer has properly adhered to your substrate.
- If the transfer does not stick, put the transfer paper back down, and press for a few more seconds. Transfers not sticking are usually due to uneven heating across the press, not enough pressure, and/or not pressed long enough.
- DTF transfers can be pressed onto any shirt material including cotton and polyester.
- ***Please note: If the image does not come off completely, repress with the image in place, let it cool, and try re-peeling the film.
