DTF questions

What is a DTF gang sheet?

A gang sheet is one large sheet of DTF film with many designs printed on it, like left-chest logos and full-back prints together. You pay for the sheet, not each design, so it's the most cost-effective way to print several designs or sizes at once.

What file should I send for DTF printing?

A vector file is preferred. A high-resolution PNG with a transparent background works too. If your artwork is blurry or AI-generated, we can clean it up or redraw it before printing.

Do you sell transfers only, or finished shirts too?

Both. We print press-ready DTF transfers for you to apply yourself, and we also make finished custom apparel with DTF printing. See our custom apparel page to order shirts, hoodies and hats.

What can DTF transfers go on?

DTF works on almost any fabric, including cotton, polyester and blends, so it's great for tees, hoodies, uniforms and workwear. It handles full-color and detailed artwork without the limits of screen printing.

Where are DTF transfers printed?

Every transfer is printed in-house at our shop at 169 Sterling Hill Rd in Barre, Vermont.
