✅ DTF Pressing Instructions (Hot Peel)

Follow these simple steps to get the best results from your DTF transfers:

🔥 Recommended Heat:

305°F to 320°F

Note: All heat presses vary slightly in actual temperature. We recommend using a heat gun or test print to check for accuracy. Lower-quality presses may require pressing closer to 320°F.

🕒 Press Time:

10 to 15 seconds

💪 Pressure:

Firm Pressure

🧼 Surface:

Make sure your garment is clean, lint-free, and fully flat before pressing.


👕 Pressing Steps:

  1. Pre-press your garment

    • Press for 3–5 seconds to remove wrinkles and moisture.

  2. Align and place your transfer

    • Position your DTF transfer design side up.

  3. Press at 305°F–320°F for 12–15 seconds

    • Use firm pressure.

  4. Hot Peel Immediately

    • Peel the film while still hot for best results.

    • Pro Tip: For smaller or intricate details, gently brush down the design with a clean, lint-free cloth before peeling to help it fully bond.

  5. (Optional) Second Press

    • If desired, cover with parchment or a Teflon sheet and press again for 5 seconds for extra durability and a matte finish.


📌 Tips:

  • If edges lift while peeling, repress for 3–5 seconds and peel again.

  • Store transfers flat in a cool, dry place until use.
