How To...

Press to Impress!

Follow our four easy steps to insure perfect DTF transfer everytime!

In addition, we recommend to...

  • Step 1, 2, 4: Use kraft or parchement paper to protect both the heat-press and the fabric from getting dirty.
  • Step 1, 2, 4: Always dress the apparel to the press to avoid wrickles to transfer from one side of the fabric to the other.
  • Step 3: Slightly rub the transfer against a clean flat surface like a table or a desk to disipate the heat faster.
  • Step 4: Kraft or parchement paper will remove the gloss from the transfered image and help to blend it with the low sheen of the fabic.

Step 1

Pre-press


Pre-pressing the fabric prior to transfer will removes the wrinkles and the moisture from the fabric and helps in a successful transfer of the printed image from the film onto the fabric.

  • Press: 5-10 seconds
  • Cotton: 300-320ºF
  • Polyester: 260ºF
  • Nylon: 220ºF

Step 2

Transfer


Place the transfer face up (adhesive face down) on the pre-pressed fabric and 

  • Press: 12-15 seconds
  • Cotton: 300-320ºF
  • Polyester: 260ºF
  • Nylon: 220ºF

Step 3

Cold Peel


Let the adhesive set into the fabric by allowing the film to completely cool down, then separate the film from the fabric, leaving the transfered image on the fabric.

Step 4

Finishing


Post-pressing is highly recommended for best results
and performance of the transfer such as wash and rub fastness

  • Press: 5-10 seconds
  • Cotton: 300-320ºF
