DTF (DIRECT TO FILM) TRANSFERS/SHEETS
Direct-to-Film (DTF) transfers are full-color heat-applied transfers for light and dark garments. No weeding or masking is required and DTF transfers can be applied to a various number of fabric types, including but not limited to, cotton, cotton/poly blends, and even 100% polyester.
All you need is a heat press!
GENERAL SETTINGS
POLY & TRI BLENDS: 275/10 SECONDS
50/50: 300/12 SECONDS
COTTON: 325/15 SECONDS
For a matte look for the transfer, press a second time with Kraft Paper for 10 seconds.
DTF Transfer Application Instructions
- Preheat the garment for 15 seconds to remove excess moisture. Let the garment cool before adding the transfer.
- Place the transfer on the shirt- white side down, image facing up.
- Press at 325° for 15 seconds under very firm pressure. (An easy press may not provide adequate pressure for DTF)
- Remove the garment from the press and let it stand until it is cool enough to peel.
- Peel once cool. *** Please note: If the image does not come off completely, repress with the transfer in place, let it cool, and re-peel the film.***
- Cover the image with parchment paper and press again for 15 seconds. You can use a Teflon sheet, butcher paper, or tissue paper.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Turn the garment inside out. Machine wash cold. No bleach No softener. Do not dry clean or iron. Tumble dry low.
ADDITIONAL SUGGESTIONS
COTTONS & BLENDS
300-315/325 F for 10-12s Second press 5-10s Medium pressure is best. Hoodies may require 325 and up, medium press 10-12s
POLYESTERS
265-275/285 F for 8-10s Med-Light pressure, (if they are thinner), otherwise, it creates a box or scorches the transfer.
Polyester settings may vary a lot, but best to use lower temp and pressure generally.
FINISHING
Matte finish: Cover sheet; Kraft/Parchment paper cover sheet, rougher texture.
Shiny/Gloss Finish: Teflon sheet
Specific silicone pads with texture can be used to prevent a glossy look, giving the print a nice textured feel.
Thicker fabrics require more heat, generally.
Hats (poly) may require 245-250 for 5-8s, Umbrellas, EZ-Ups, and Stadium chairs will require testing, trial, and error.
Do a 24hr test (fine tuning) for a day to see if the ink migrates (clothing dye reacts with DTF ink)
