Pressing Instructions for DTF Transfers
✨ Pressing Instructions for DTF Transfers
Updated for our latest transfer film – cold peel only for the best results!
🔥 Press Like a Pro – Cold Peel Required
Our upgraded DTF film is designed specifically for cold peel application, ensuring vibrant, long-lasting results with the right technique. Let your design cool completely before peeling for a flawless finish every time.
⚠️ Important Note:
All heat presses behave a bit differently. Temperatures and pressure can vary between machines, even if the settings say the same thing. For best results:
-
Use a heat gun to verify your press temperature
-
Ensure you’re using true heavy pressure (don’t rely on just the dial)
We are not responsible for issues caused by incorrect heat or pressure settings.
