Applying DTF transfers correctly
Which transfer suits which textile, and how do you press it so it lasts? Here you will find guides on choosing materials, dye migration and pressing.
Find out why dyed polyester can release colour during pressing, when Blockout is the right choice and what to look out for with blended fabrics.
The right product for your material
- DTF transfer for 100 per cent cotton and blends with at least 70 per cent cotton
- Blockout DTF transfer for dyed polyester textiles with at least 40 per cent polyester, with Blockout adhesive against dye migration, not for water-repellent coated fabrics
- UV DTF for smooth, hard surfaces such as glass, metal or plastic
So your transfer lasts
You will find the temperature, pressing time and pressure for every product in the heat press settings. With new textiles, it is worth doing a test press on the same material before a run, because how much dye migrates depends on the individual textile.
How to wash printed textiles properly is explained in our care instructions. You will find them as a download with every textile product.
