Our DTF Printing Process
At Perfect DTF Transfers, our mission is to deliver vibrant, long-lasting custom prints to customers across the United States — with every order crafted right here in Louisiana. Whether you’re printing shirts for your clothing brand, uniforms for your team, or promotional items for your business, our DTF printing process ensures consistent, professional results.
1. Upload or Build Your Gang Sheet
Our process begins with your artwork. You have two easy options:
-
Upload Your Own DTF Gang Sheet – Perfect if your design is already arranged and ready to print.
-
Rolling DTF Gang Sheet Builder – Use our online tool to combine multiple designs into one sheet, saving you time and money.
We review each file to ensure it meets our DTF Order File Tips for optimal print quality.
2. Professional Color Management
We print using vibrant CMYK + white inks on high-quality PET film. Before printing, our technicians check for color accuracy, sharp lines, and proper resolution.
-
Bright whites and deep blacks
-
Smooth gradients and clean edges
-
Color matching for branding consistency
3. High-Resolution DTF Printing
We use industry-leading DTF printers to produce full-color, stretchable prints. This ensures your transfers can withstand washes, stretching, and heavy wear without cracking or fading.
4. Precision Powder Coating & Curing
After printing, we apply a fine adhesive powder to the design, which bonds during the curing process. This step guarantees:
-
Strong adhesion to cotton, polyester, and blends
-
Smooth, professional finish
-
Long-lasting durability
