DTF printing allows for vibrant and durable designs with excellent color reproduction.

7. How do I apply DTF transfers?
Applying DTF transfers is simple. Preheat your heat press to 320 Degrees F. Place the DTF Transfer onto the material you want to transfer the design onto with the printed side facing down. Apply firm pressure for between 12-15 seconds depending on your heat press. The transfers are warm peel, they need to cool off a little bit before peeling. Test the edge of the transfer for proper adhesion before peeling the entire sheet. Peel off the transfer sheet, and your design will be transferred onto the material.
8. What is sublimation printing?
Sublimation printing is a digital printing process that uses heat and pressure to transfer dye onto different substrates. Your design is printed onto special transfer paper using sublimation inks. You then place the transfer onto your product and heat it by pressing with a heat press. This will transfer your image.
9. Can I apply transfers using an iron?
We recommend the use of a quality heat press for applying DTF transfers and cannot guarantee the proper transfer and adhesion if not using proper equipment. We do not recommend using irons or a Cricut easy press for DTF transfers.
10. What surfaces can I use DTF transfers on?
DTF transfers can be used on a variety of fabrics, including cotton, polyester, and blends. The key is to ensure that the material can withstand the heat and pressure required for the transfer process. It is always recommended to test a small area of your garment before applying the transfer.
11. What surfaces can I use sublimation transfers on?
Sublimation transfers are more limited on the fabrics they can be applied to. Sublimation requires at least 60% polyester count for fabric, the higher the polyester, the more vibrant your image will transfer. Since sublimation does not print white it is best applied to lighter or white colored material. However, sublimation can be applied to a larger variety of substrates that are deemed as sublimation blanks, these can include, but are not limited to, mugs, tumblers, mouse pads, and photo magnets.
