FOR DIRECT TO FILM TRANSFERS:
Direct-to-Film Transfers (also known as DTF) is exactly what it sounds like. It is your artwork printed on a special film and transfer said film onto fabric or other textiles. DTF transfers are full-color heat applied transfers for light and dark garments. DTF is a process that transfers prints onto fabric or other substrates using a heat-press mechanism. Unlike the DTG method, which only works on cotton fabrics, the Printer DTF method can be applied to cotton, cotton/poly blends, and even 100% polyester.
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.
Simply press and go! All you need is a heat press!
