Start with a smooth surface
Think glass drinkware, acrylic signs, metal bottles and other smooth, rigid items. Coatings and texture affect adhesion, so test unfamiliar surfaces first. This is a different product from the DTF used on clothing.

UV DTF · PRODUCT DETAILS
What is UV DTF?
UV DTF is a printed transfer for smooth, hard objects. The printed design arrives on clear carrier film. The ink is cured with UV light during printing; you apply the finished transfer with pressure, without a heat press.

Peel, position, press
Clean and dry the object. Remove the backing, position the design, then rub firmly across the whole transfer. Lift the clear carrier slowly, checking that small details stay on the object.
Remove the carrier film
After you remove the carrier, the printed artwork remains with a glossy finish. Check your file for unwanted backgrounds: any background in the artwork becomes part of the print.
Caring for the print
Hand wash decorated drinkware and avoid abrasive scrubbing over the print. Keep designs on the outside of drinking vessels. Follow the application and care instructions supplied with your transfers.
FAQ
What does the PPI warning mean?
PPI tells you how many image pixels fit into each inch of the print. Low resolution can leave edges and text looking blurry. Use a higher-resolution original or reduce the print size. Enlarging the preview does not add detail.
Does the preview background print?
No. It's only there so you can inspect the design. A background that is part of your image will print.
Why do width and height change together?
Proportions are locked so the design keeps its shape. Turn that off only if you want to stretch it, and check the preview.
Can I edit an item after adding it to the cart?
Yes. Hit Edit on the item, change the size or quantity, and check the new total before you save.
