Sample Pack - All in One

Sample Pack All in One: test DTF, UV DTF and sublimation before you order

How a print feels, how sharp its edges are and how well it covers only becomes clear on the finished print, not on screen. That is why the Sample Pack contains test prints of our products and other prints, so you can feel the differences for yourself before you place your first larger order.

These samples are included

• Test print with DTF standard adhesive
• Test print with DTF Blockout adhesive
• Mini colour chart as a sample
• UV DTF standard print as a sample
• UV DTF print in matt as a sample
• UV DTF print in transparent as a sample
• Sublimation print as a sample

Standard and Blockout in direct comparison

For cotton and cotton blends, the DTF standard adhesive is intended. The Blockout adhesive was developed for dyed polyester textiles and holds back dyes that could otherwise migrate into light areas of the design under the heat of the press. The surest way to tell which adhesive suits which textile is to lay both samples side by side and feel them yourself. You will find the details under DTF transfers.

UV DTF in three finishes

The pack contains three versions of UV DTF: Standard is opaque and glossy, Matt has a more understated surface, and Transparent has no white print, so the surface shows through the design. The quickest way to find out which one suits your material is to place the samples on the surface you want to decorate, i.e. on the glass, metal or plastic. More details under UV DTF transfers.

How to go about testing

First, go through the samples by hand and pay attention to how they feel and how the edges look. In the second step, press one of them with your own press onto a textile that you sell yourself. The test piece then goes in the wash, following the care instructions of the textile and ideally over several cycles, so that you can judge colour fastness and edges after washing too. You will find everything about application in the FAQ.

Always do the test on an offcut and never on a finished item from a customer order.
