How to Apply Your DTF Transfers

Our DTF transfers are designed to be easy to apply and durable when pressed correctly. For best results, always use a heat press. While household iron may work in some cases, it does not provide consistent heat or pressure. A heat press is strongly recommended and produces the BEST results.

Heat, time, and pressure are all important. Always test press on a scrap garment when possible.

Sizing Recommendations for Designs

These are general guidelines to help you choose sizing that looks proportional on most garments:

• Adult: 11" wide 
• Youth: approx. 9" wide
• Toddler: approx. 7" wide
• Baby: approx. 5" wide

For narrow and tall designs, children’s sizes are best determined by height, not width.

Important Notes & Disclaimer

• Always follow your garment care and heat settings
• Press on a flat, even surface only
• Avoid seams, zippers, or thick edges under the press
