🎯 What Are DTF Prints for T-Shirts?
DTF (Direct to Film) is a cutting-edge printing method where designs are printed onto a special PET film, coated with adhesive powder, and heat-transferred directly onto fabric — including cotton, polyester, blends, and more.
Why it's perfect for t-shirts:
✅ Full-color & high-resolution designs
✅ Works on light & dark garments
✅ No weeding, no vinyl, no mess
✅ Long-lasting & stretchable prints
✅ Easy press at 300–320°F
