What Are UV DTF Transfers?
Unlike traditional DTF prints, which are typically limited to use on fabric, UV DTF technology is highly effective in creating versatile designs that can be used on a much broader range of materials. UV DTF transfers allow you to create ultra-vibrant, durable, and waterproof transfers for hard surfaces like glass, metal, plastic, and ceramics, making them an excellent choice for custom designs on tumblers, cups, laptops, and more.

UV DTF transfers come packed with features that set them apart from garden-variety alternatives. Here’s how our transfers stand out:
- Unmatched Adhesive Strength: UV DTF transfers adhere seamlessly to smooth surfaces like glass, plastic, and metal, ensuring long-lasting performance without peeling or lifting.
- Durable and Long-Lasting: UV DTF prints are designed to resist wear and tear, keeping your designs looking fresh. They can withstand scratches, abrasion, and even exposure to direct sunlight.
- Vibrant and Colorful Prints: Our advanced UV DTF printing technology utilizes heat and pressure to create your design images, ensuring stunning, vivid colors that retain their brilliance, even when exposed to moisture and outdoor elements.
- Waterproof and Weatherproof: UV transfers withstand rain, moisture, and extreme temperatures, making them perfect for long-lasting designs on water bottles, car decals, outdoor signage, and more.
- Easy Application: Applying a UV DTF transfer is simple and requires no special equipment. Every print adheres effortlessly, providing a professional finish and maximum impact with minimal effort.
- Scratch-Resistant and Fade-Resistant: Engineered for durability, DTF transfers are designed to withstand the rigors of daily use, ensuring designs that maintain their original striking appearance, even after heavy usage or exposure to the elements.

How to Care for UV DTF Transfers
Proper care ensures longevity while keeping your prints looking their best. While UV DTF transfers are designed to be low-maintenance, a little TLC goes a long way in ensuring their durability. Follow these care instructions and top tips for designs that continue to pack a punch.
- Avoid soaking items with UV DTF designs for extended periods.
- Handwash where possible. If you must use a dishwasher, opt for a delicate cycle.
- Use a mild soap or detergent rather than washing with harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Wash with a soft sponge rather than using scouring pads or steel wool.
- Consider adding a layer of varnish for extra protection.
- Avoid using ceramic or glass items with UV DTF prints in microwave ovens.
- Store items with UV DTF transfers in a cool, dry place.
- Periodically clean prints on outdoor surfaces with a damp cloth to remove dirt and ensure continued visibility and vibrancy.
By following these guidelines, you can protect your investment by ensuring your transfers remain vibrant and long-lasting.
How to Apply UV DTF Transfers
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to apply DTF transfers to surfaces like tumblers, cups, jars, windows, and more:
- Clean your surface: Use a damp towel to remove dust, grease, and fingerprints. Avoid using alcohol, as this can break down the adhesive and prevent it from sticking.
- Dry your surface: Remove any moisture using a dry paper towel rather than a fabric cloth, which could leave fluff on the surface.
- Peel your transfer: Position your transfer on a flat surface and carefully peel it from its carrier sheet.
- Place your transfer: Stick the transfer onto your chosen item slowly, carefully, and with precision.
- Apply pressure: Remove any air bubbles or wrinkles manually or by using the application card in a back-and-forth motion.
- Remove the film: Starting at one of the top corners, slowly peel the film away at a right angle.
