Pressing Instructions

  1. Position Your Design Face Down: Take your time to line up your transfer in the desired location on your item. Normally, there is no need to use heat-resistant tape on flat heat presses to keep your design in place, however it is highly recommended when pressing transfers onto hats or when using an iron to keep the transfer in place. You’ll get a feel for when this is needed. For more precise positioning, use our DTF Alignment Ruler Set.
  2. Press: Press your transfer with heavy pressure at 350°F / 175°C for 7 seconds.
  3. Peel: 3D Puff Transfers are a Hot Peel that needs to be peeled immediately.

Care Instructions

For optimal care of puff transfers, we recommend the following steps:

  1. Turn the garment inside out before washing.
  2. Use cold water for washing.
  3. Air dry the garment or tumble dry on a low setting.

Following these guidelines will help preserve the quality and longevity of the print.
