DTF stands for Direct-to-Film, a printing method where your design is printed onto a special film and then heat pressed onto a garment. DTF transfers work on a wide range of fabrics—including cotton, polyester, blends, and more—and can be applied in about 12-15 seconds with a heat press.
How do transfers hold up in the wash?
Our have been rigorously tested and verified by third party to ensure long-lasting durability. After undergoing 100 machine wash cycles (80°F, normal cycle, line dry) on a 100% cotton shirt, the transfers were evaluated for color retention, peeling, cracking, and overall integrity. The results were overwhelmingly positive, with a "Satisfactory" grade across all criteria, including negligible hand-feel change and no significant signs of delamination or print detachment.
