Care & Application

How to apply your DTF transfer

These settings are a guide — always do a test press first, as every heat press and film differs.

1. Pre-press the garment for ~5 seconds to remove moisture and creases.
2. Position your transfer, print side down.
3. Press at 150–165°C (depending on the fabric) with medium-firm pressure for 10–15 seconds.
4. Peel the film (hot or cold — test which your film prefers).
5. Finish with a second press for ~5 seconds using a cover sheet (baking paper or PTFE) for a smooth, durable finish.

Washing & care

• Wait 24 hours before the first wash.
• Turn the garment inside out before washing.
• Wash cold or warm (max 30°C) on a gentle cycle.
• Avoid bleach and harsh detergents.
• Hang dry or tumble dry low.
• Do not iron directly on the print — use a cover sheet and iron the reverse.

Looked after well, your prints stay vivid and crack-free for many washes.
