How to Press Your DTF Transfers
Pressing and Peeling Instructions
The following are guidelines that I use on my Hotronix Fusion Heat Press. You may need to slightly adjust your time and temp depending on your heat press and substrate.
Press Temp: 275-285 Degrees
Press Pressure: Medium-High
Time: 10-12 seconds (8-10 for polyesters)
PEEL IMMEDIATELY: For myself, it took some practice to hot peel but I got it down by peeling corner to corner and ripping it low and fast immediately when the lid opened. If you prefer and want that security of no mess-ups from a hot peel, let it cool as it can be a cold peel too. Both have same great results!
Finish Press: 3-5 Seconds with Cover finish sheets or a cotton T-shirt for best results
Note: Polyesters can use less heat and time than cottons
Here's a Recap:
1. Position Your Design on your Substrate
2. Press at 275 -285 degrees
3. Peel Hot or Cold
4. Finish Press (Optional)
