Direct-to-Film (DTF) transfers are full-color heat applied transfers for light and dark garments. No weeding or masking is required and DTF transfers can be applied to cotton, cotton/poly blends, and even 100% polyester. THIS IS NOT VINYL. DTF Transfers are printed with special inks and printed onto a transfer sheet, then an adhesive is applied to the ink which then is all pressed on the shirt and the ink infuses into the fibers of the shirt. It can be used on BOTH DARK & LIGHT garments.

Sublimation Transfers will not print white ink. If there is white in the design it will become the color of the fabric you apply it to. Image color may vary slightly due to computer screen resolution. Sublimation will NOT work on cotton or dark colored shirts. The closer to 100% polyester you get, the brighter the image. The closer to 40% polyester you get, the more vintage the image.

Press Instructions below.

Each transfer has a ONE time use. Simply press and go! All you need is a heat press and your garment! It will not be printed with the watermark or white background.
