I can't say enough good things about DTFIL.
All my interactions with them have been great.
They are the best. Consistent prints. Consistent color. Super fast turn around. They have become my only supplier.
Color Ribbon: Avoid pressing the colored ribbon that runs alongside the transfer roll, as it cannot be removed from the shirt.
First Press: Apply firm pressure at 300-315 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-13 seconds, ensuring the image is properly positioned. Experiment with your heat press for the best results.
Peel Method:
Cold Peel: Allow the transfer to cool completely before removing the film. Use a cloth to rub if necessary. (Preferred method) Hot Peel: Immediately peel off the film in one swift motion. Warm Peel: You can gently peel off the film when warm. While you have the option, we highly recommend using the cold peel method.
Second Press: Apply firm pressure at 300-315 degrees Fahrenheit for 3-5 seconds.
Note: Consistent and even pressure is crucial for strong adhesion. Avoid pressing over pockets, seams, buttons, zippers, etc.
Polyester/Blend Fabric: Reduce the temperature to approximately 300 degrees Fahrenheit and shorten the time to 10-12 seconds as these fabrics absorb heat quickly. Press multiple times if necessary, allowing cooling time between presses.
100% Polyester: Lower the temperature to 250-285 degrees Fahrenheit and reduce the press time to 3-8 seconds. Experiment to find the optimal time, temperature, and pressure. Press multiple times if necessary, allowing cooling time between presses.
