\u2022 After you receive an order cut out individual prints.
\u2022 Place the garment on the heat press.
\u2022 Pre-heat the garment surface for 5 seconds.
\u2022 Place your DTF transfer print on the desired location.
\u2022 Stamp your transfer with heat press using 160-170\u00b0C temperature.
\u2022 Hold it closed for 15-20 sec.
\u2022 Open and let it sit for 30-60 seconds until you remove the transfer film.

Practical advice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 If you operate a small shop you can prepare small amounts of each design. It can be a great way to handle quick orders as the transfers can sit in storage for a long time.

\u2022 Before pressing on good clothes try testing on unused garments to ensure that you understand the production process correctly.

\u2022 Avoid buying home printers and converting them to DTF as you will run into continuous technical problems and will not be able to achieve high quality prints at all times. Rather leave it to the professionals that use industrial printers that are designed to print with such dense inks.

\u2022 Think wisely before purchasing expensive printers as these need to be maintained daily and must be kept printing for long hours to ensure good ink flow. If the printers sit unused the print heads clog, which most of the time leads to thousands in repairs. Instead you can test your business idea by ordering transfers and applying them with your heat press. This way you avoid large investments and maintenance risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
