Instrucciones para Aplicar tus Transferencias DTF
INSTRUCCIONES GENERALES PARA APLICAR TUS TRANSFERENCIAS DTF
Asegúrese de que su prenda o superficie esté limpia, seca y libre de arrugas o residuos. Puede preprensar las prendas para asegurar este paso.
Configure la prensa de calor a 300 grados Fahrenheit.
Presione durante 10 segundos ejerciendo presión alta (60 PSI). La presión es uno de los factores más importantes para adherir correctamente sus transferencias a su prenda. Asegúerese de que la presión es adecuada, si no lo es, su transferencia no se va a adherir correctamente. Si su prensa no logra la presión adecuada, puede apoyarse de una almohada de presión.
Deje que la prenda se enfríe completamente. Una vez enfriada, retire cuidadosamente la película de transferencia comenzando por una esquina.
Vuelva a prensar durante otros 10 segundos para sellar su diseño con una hoja de teflón encima como protección. Si desea un resultado mate, haga este paso pero usando una hoja de papel pergamino.
La segunda prensada sella su diseño.
