Applying DTF Transfers
Applying DTF transfers
Once the DTF transfers arrive, it's time to bring your creations to life. While there may be some variation in instructions for different materials, the general application process is as follows:
- Prepare the substrate: Ensure that the item you're transferring the design onto is clean and free of wrinkles. Giving the material a quick press can ensure a smooth surface.
- Position the transfer: Carefully place the DTF transfer onto your item, ensuring it's aligned and straight. A placement tool set can help ensure consistent print locations.
- Apply heat: Use your heat press, Cricut EasyPress, or home iron, following the provided temperature and timing instructions to apply the transfer onto the item.
- Peel away: After pressing and cooling, gently peel off the PET film, unveiling your beautiful, high-quality print. A Fast Cool Air Blower can help accelerate this step.
