CUSTOM DTF PRINT on GLITTER FILM

All images using this listing will be printed on our high-quality, holographic glitter film. Glitter will on transfer where the image is printed. No need to worry about trimming the excess or doing anything special. Just press like normal DTF. 

You can upload your own image or use one of ours, just please list which image of ours you would like in the notes at checkout, upload a screenshot of our image when adding to your cart, or email us at info@kkcustomtnt. 

Turnaround times for glitter film DTF will be slightly different than normal DTF due to the nature of changing rolls to print. So these images will have a 5-7 business day turnaround and we will print all orders for glitter film on Saturdays. So any orders placed between Sunday morning through Friday at midnight will be printed the next Saturday. Any orders after those times will be printed the next week. 

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. 

Press and GO!  All you need is a heat press! 

Turnaround time is 3-5 business days once your order is approved. 

CUSTOM ORDERS & GANG SHEETS: Images uploaded must be in PNG format and recommended quality is 300 dpi. Images must be ready to print with a transparent background when they are submitted. Any edits will require a design fee. DTF prints contain white ink so a white background will print. 

When enlarging or shrinking we preserve the dimensions of the original image. If the width is larger than the height, the width is treated as the longest side. If the height is larger than the width, the height is treated as the longest side. 

DTF Transfer Application Instructions

1. Preheat the garment for 15 seconds to remove excess moisture. Let the garment cool before adding the transfer.
2. Place the transfer on the shirt- white side down, image facing up.
3. Press at 325° for 15 seconds under very firm pressure. (An easy press may not provide adequate pressure for DTF)
4. Remove the garment from the press and let it stand until it is cool enough to peel.
5. 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.***
6. Cover the image with parchment paper and press again for 15 seconds. You can use a Teflon sheet, butcher paper, or tissue paper.

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)
