4 PCs DTF Heat Transfer Sheets ๐
๐ธ DTF (Direct-to-Film) heat transfer is a modern printing method that uses full-color designs printed on special film, coated with adhesive powder, and heat-pressed onto fabrics like cotton, polyester, and blends. It requires a temperature of 300ยฐF to 320ยฐF, medium-to-high pressure, and about 12 to 15 seconds of press time.
๐ธ Step-by-Step ApplicationPrep the garment: Use a lint roller to remove debris, then pre-press the fabric for 3 to 5 seconds to remove moisture and wrinkles.
๐ธ Position the design: Place the DTF transfer face down (image against the fabric) and line it up centrally.
๐ธ Press: Apply medium-to-high pressure at 300ยฐFโ320ยฐF for 12โ15 seconds. Cover with parchment or Teflon paper if recommended by your transfer provider.
๐ธ Peel the film: Check instructions for a hot or cold peel. Let it cool or peel immediately depending on your specific film type, then pull the carrier sheet away slowly.
๐ธ Final post-press: Cover the exposed design with parchment paper and press for another 5 to 10 seconds to lock in durability and soften the feel.
