Christmas Vibes

Trendy and permanent - our UV DTF decals are a total game changer! Forget weeding vinyl and having to layer it all. These decals are vibrant and the quality is next to none, just like our regular DTF!

For St. Thomas pickups, please note ST. THOMAS in the notes section.

These UV DTF transfers do not include any drinkware.

Application Instructions:

• Place the UV DTF design face down.
• Peel the white backing slowly off the design.  The design will be on the clear sticky film.
  
• Place the transfer on the cup ensuring the design is straight and positioned correctly.
• Apply your transfer to the glass slowly, making sure to press firmly to help the transfer stick. Press the transfer down, working from the center outwards, pushing out any bubbles.

*Please note UV DTF adhesive cup wraps are permanent. Once transfer is on the glass it cannot be taken off so please make sure you are positioning your transfer correctly.*

• Rub all over the design with your fingers or craft squeegee. The more rubbing the better.
• Peel clear film off slowly and you're done!

DTF Pressing Instructions

• Each order comes with pressing instructions
  
• It’s always a good idea to test your transfer first to find the ideal time + temp that works for your press as
  each heat press is made differently.
  
• We highly recommend using a commercial heat press.
  
• Apply HEAVY pressure. It should take two hands to pull your press shut.
  
• Peel your transfer swiftly, with confidence. Do not peel slowly if peeling hot. Think of it as ripping off a wax strip when you go to peel.
  
• Alternatively, you can wait for the transfer to cool and then peel.

  SPECIFIC STEPS:
  Follow each step to ensure best results.

1. Pre press your material at time and temp above (300F for 5-10 seconds)

2. Apply the transfer face down, ensure heavy pressure, and press at 300F for 10 seconds

3. Swiftly peel the transfer off. Peeling it with confidence (not slowly) while it's hot OR wait for it to cool down and then peel

4. Give it a second press at 300F for 10 seconds but this time, place a piece of parchment paper/butcher paper or old t-shirt on top of your transfer and press. That's it! A stunning, matte and durable transfer is the end result.

Ideally, wait 24 hours before washing.
