Pressing Instructions

There are multiple ways to press your DTF sheets and the best method can depend on the garment type, design detail, and personal preference. Cold peel is generally what we use for our own production because it provides consistent results though many customers prefer the speed of hot peel.

If this is your first time using our transfers, we strongly recommend ordering a few extra prints on your sheet to test with your press and garment choice.
