DTF transfers in depth

DTF transfers are a type of garment transfer that has been printed using a water-based DTF Inks that are printed onto a clear release paper. This allows the end user the flexibility of when the transfer is applied and what the transfer is applied to. DTF transfers can be made in single color or full color images.

How to apply your DTF transfer

All DTF transfers from Blu Ridge require the use of a commercial grade heat press due to the high, even pressure that is needed for the correct application. You cannot use a cricut heat press or at home irons. DTF needs even and heavy pressure to seal in the print.

How to Press your DTF Transfers

Prepress garment to remove excess moisture

Be sure to place transfer on shirt vibrant side up facing you.

Pressing Temperature: 320°F

Pressing Time: 8 seconds

Pressure: HIGH 8-9 PSI

Optional: We prefer to do another 8 second press after the cold peel to lock the design into the fibers. 

We are not responsible for damaged transfers after you have pressed them. Please make sure you are knowledgable on your heat, pressing pressure and peeling technique. This includes using non-commercial grade heat presses or irons to try and use our transfers.
