How to Use DTF Transfers

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Surface - Make sure your fabric or garment is clean, dry, and wrinkle-free. Pre-press with a heat press to remove moisture.
  2. Position the Transfer - Place your DTF transfer print-side down on your garment in the desired location.
  3. Apply Heat and Pressure - Use a heat press at 300-320°F (150-160°C) for 10-15 seconds with medium to firm pressure. Cover with a protective sheet.
  4. Peel the Film - Let it cool for a few seconds, then peel away the transfer film while it's still warm (hot peel method). Some transfers may require cold peeling - check your transfer instructions.
  5. Final Press - Cover the design with a protective sheet and press again for 5-10 seconds to ensure proper adhesion.

Tips for Best Results

  • Use a heat press for professional results (household irons may not provide even pressure)
  • Don't stretch the fabric while the transfer is still warm
  • Wait 24 hours before washing

  • Avoid fabric softener and bleach
