How to Find Your Perfect DTF Transfer Film

Jan 3,2025

DTF printing technology has quickly become a popular choice in the world of custom apparel and personalized products due to its vibrant colors, intricate designs, and wide applicability. The DTF transfer film plays a crucial role in this technology, directly impacting the final print's quality and durability. Selecting the right DTF printing film has become a key focus for many users. Today, Fcolor will share some expert insights to help you find the perfect DTF film and make the most of the potential of DTF printing.

As a manufacturer with 15 years of experience in printing inks, Fcolor not only provides high-quality DTF printers, inks, and complete solutions but also focuses on offering professional technical support and guidance to our customers. We understand that selecting the right DTF transfer film is vital for achieving excellent print results.

Key Factors in Choosing DTF Film:

When selecting DTF films, here are some key factors to consider:

Thickness: DTF films usually range from 30 to 100 microns in thickness. Thicker films are more durable, making them ideal for garments that require frequent washing, such as workwear or sportswear. Thinner films are more flexible, making them better suited for products that require a soft touch, such as T-shirts or baby clothes. Fcolor offers a variety of DTF film rolls in different thicknesses to meet diverse application needs.

Coating: The coating of the DTF film determines ink adhesion and color performance. A high-quality coating ensures that the ink is evenly distributed, producing vibrant, rich colors that are resistant to fading or peeling. Fcolor's DTF printing film uses special coating technology to ensure long-lasting, brilliant prints.

Cold Peel/Hot Peel: There are two types of DTF films: cold peel DTF film and hot peel DTF film. Cold peel films can be removed directly after printing, offering quick and easy operation. Hot peel films, on the other hand, require heat to remove and are better for intricate and detailed designs, effectively preventing distortion or damage to the prints. Fcolor offers both cold-peel DTF film and hot-peel DTF film, allowing you to choose based on your specific needs.

Washability: For garments that need frequent washing, the washability of the DTF film is particularly important. Choosing a wash-resistant DTF transfer film ensures that the print remains vivid and intact after multiple washes. Fcolor's DTF films undergo strict testing to provide excellent washability performance.

Compatible Inks: Different types of DTF inks require specific DTF films to achieve optimal printing results. Fcolor's DTF films are perfectly matched with Fcolor's DTF inks, ensuring vibrant colors, and clear layers, and preventing clogging of the printhead.

Using DTF Film: Small Tips, Big Difference

In addition to choosing the right DTF film, the proper usage method is equally important

Pre-treatment: Before using DTF films, it is recommended to pre-treat them by removing dust or static from the surface to ensure the best printing results.

Printer Settings: Depending on the type of DTF film and printer model, adjustments such as print temperature and print speed are necessary to achieve the best print quality. Fcolor offers expert technical support to help you optimize these settings.

Transfer Temperature and Time: The transfer temperature and time significantly affect the final print. If the temperature is too high or too low, or if the time is too short or too long, it can impact the adhesion and color performance of the print. Fcolor recommends referring to the DTF film instructions or consulting our technicians for the best transfer parameters.

Post-processing: After the transfer, post-processing steps such as cold pressing or hot pressing can be done to further enhance the durability and appearance of the prints.
