Direct to Film (DTF)
Use DTF technology to efficiently & quickly get your orders out to your customers
Direct to Film (referred to as DTF) is a printing process that will take your high resolution .png or vectored PDF file and create vibrant, colorful transfers prints that are easily applied to fabrics using a heat-press. DTF transfers are brighter, provide higher detail and stretch better with the fabric than vinyl.
The DTF method works on all fabrics:
• Cotton • Polyester • Cotton/Poly Blends •
No pre-treatment is required.
To apply set your heat press to medium pressure & 285 F.
• Press for 3-5 Seconds to remove Wrinkles.
• Position your Transfer and Press for 10 Seconds.
• Peal Hot – no need to let it cool.
• Do a 2nd Press for 5 Seconds.
Your decorated piece is ready to go!
