    What a fantastic video! Thank you Alex, your explanations and recommendations were so well put. Easy to understand and follow. I had not heard of DTF and was hesitant to try sublimation and ruin blanks. This sounds like the perfect solution.

    • @rhondarhodes1586
      @rhondarhodes1586 Год назад +1

      Yes that was my issue with dtf and she answered my question when she mentioned the feel, I’m not against it. I just agree that sublimation is the way to Go, I don’t want my products to crack or peel and after so many washings they tend to do that,, but with sublimation it’s there to stay. I was sooooo confused on the dtf bc I’ve seen so many use some powder and she didn’t use any🤷🏼‍♀️

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  Год назад

      It’s full color, so you don’t need to cut a separate layer for each color. It’s also different in the material’s composition.

    How things have changed! It's been several years since I cut, weeded, and pressed vinyl onto shirts, hats, and totes. DTF opens a new world.

    This is very cool! Don't know if I just spaced out, but what about DTF film and powder that you just use in your regular inkjet or sublimation printer? I think I would definitely just order from ProWorld though...much easier

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  Год назад

      So when I talked about the “inkjet printer hack”, that’s the process I was talking about! It makes some cool projects, but since you have to use a white shirt and a lot of the color will wash put anyway, I think sublimation makes more sense. I agree, letting the pros handle it is way better long term!
