🎉 Hooray! We've reached the climax of our enlightening DTF Basics series where we craft a custom-designed shirt with Direct to Film (DTF) pressing! From designing your graphic to ripping, printing, powdering, and curing, we've got it all covered, and now it’s time for the grand reveal - making it a shirt! 🚀
In this episode, we stress the importance of the material you're pressing on, and how it dictates the time, temperature, and pressure settings on your heat press. 🔥 Bonus: Get your hands on our cheat sheet for a quick reference on these settings for different materials! 📋 Today’s mission is pressing on a poly cotton blend at 275°F for 20 seconds with light pressure.
We’ll also dive into the intriguing world of hot and cold peel films. Spoiler Alert: We are using our V2 hot peel because who wants to wait? 🚀
But wait, there’s more! A second press is crucial for that silky hand feel and durability. We've rigorously tested 12 materials and will share the champions, t-seal, and parchment paper. ⏱️ Whether you press for 5 seconds or the full 20 - we’ve got the insights!
