• To ensure correct colors are printed, artwork must be submitted in a CMYK print profile. If artwork is submitted in a RGB print profile, your final printed colors may appear off.

Programs such as Canva and Silhouette do not allow for artwork to be created in a CMYK profile. To convert to a CMYK profile, you will need to utilize a design program such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Corel Draw or similar.

What is a DTF Transfer?

DTF transfers are a type of garment transfer that has been printed using a water-based DTF ink 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. Keep in mind that full color transfers will feel slightly thicker than single color transfers simply because more ink is used to create the transfer itself but we do pride ourselves with having some of the thinnest full color DTF transfers on the market. DTF transfers from CSDS Vinyl can be applied to any cotton, polyester, or cotton-poly blend materials. 

Application Instructions***

All CSDS Vinyl DTF transfers require the use of a commercial grade heat press due to the high, even pressure that is needed for correct application. Home irons will not work.

While not necessary, Teflon sheets or parchment paper can be used as a protective covering when pressing. If you are pressing your DTF transfer without the clear transfer paper (such as a second press) be sure to use a teflon sheet or parchment paper to protect your heat press. Be advised that pressing pillows can negatively effect the application and these should be used at your own risk

*These settings are recommendations only and will greatly depend on your heat press. If you are not familiar with pressing DTF transfers from CSDS Vinyl, we recommend completing a few test presses to ensure the correct temperature, time and pressure for your heat press.

DISCOUNTS CAN NOT BE APPLIED TO THIS ITEM. CUSTOMS WILL NOT GO INTO PRODUCTION IF A DISCOUNT HAS BEEN APPLIED. CUSTOMER SERVICE WILL REACH OUT IN THE EVENT THAT A DISCOUNT HAS BEEN USED TO EITHER CANCEL THE ORDER OR COLLECT THE DISCOUNTED AMOUNT.
