DTF Transfer Pressing Instructions

Follow these steps carefully for best results

Important

For best transfer results, use recommended temperature and pressure settings. Results may vary based on fabric type and heat press equipment.

1

Preheat Your Heat Press

Set your heat press to the recommended temperature and pressure. Allow the press to fully preheat before beginning the transfer process.

300-310°F Firm
2

Pre-Press the Fabric

Press the fabric for a few seconds to release any moisture and remove wrinkles. This ensures a smooth surface for the transfer.

2-3 seconds
3

Position the Transfer

Place the printed adhesive side down on the garment. Ensure proper alignment before pressing.

4

Press the Transfer

Apply firm, even pressure for the recommended time. Do not move or shift the transfer during pressing.

8-12 seconds
5

Peel HOT

Immediately after pressing, remove the backing film from your transfer using a smooth, even motion. Peel while the transfer is still hot for best adhesion.

6

Post-Press (Final Step)

For best results, do a second press. We recommend using 100% cotton with a burlap texture. This ensures maximum durability and adhesion.

Wait 24 hours before washing to allow the adhesive to fully cure
Wash inside out in cold water and hang dry for longest lasting transfers
