Let's Compare!
Let me tell you about a quicker, easier, and more reliable alternative to traditional shirt decoration methods —DTF (Direct-to-Film) Transfers, or as we like to call ours, "Jiffy Transfers!" Direct-to-Film is a printing method where designs are printed onto a special film using a water-based ink, cured and then transferred to fabric using heat.
Jiffy Transfers are rapidly becoming the preferred choice among crafters, and I'll explain why they’re the game-changer your project needs.
Why Choose DTF Over HTV?
1. No Weeding or Cutting – Just Press and Go!
Weeding is one of the most tedious steps in HTV crafting. DTF eliminates this completely! All you need is your transfer and a heat press. Simply position the design, press it, and peel—done in minutes. No intricate cutting or weeding is necessary. You’ll save time and energy, leaving more room for creativity.
2. Unlimited Colors and Freedom with Unlimited Negative Space
Unlike HTV, which can be restrictive when it comes to layering multiple colors or dealing with negative space, Jiffy Transfers offer unlimited color possibilities. You can print full-color designs, and even intricate details without worrying about layering or cutting, and your design can have as much negative space as you want. Areas without color remain clean and crisp, giving you complete creative freedom to design without boundaries.
3. Works on a Wide Range of Fabrics
DTF Transfers are versatile enough to work on almost any material—cotton, polyester, blends, denim, even leather! Whether you’re making a custom T-shirt or decorating a unique tote bag, DTF offers the freedom to experiment with various fabrics.
4. Soft, Seamless Hand-Feel
Jiffy Transfers provide a soft, natural feel that almost becomes part of the fabric itself. Unlike traditional vinyl, which can sometimes feel stiff or rubbery, Jiffy Transfers are smooth and flexible. The design blends seamlessly into the material, giving your garments a comfortable, high-quality finish without any bulky or raised texture. Perfect for creating designs that look great and feel even better!
5. Durable and Long-Lasting
Jiffy Transfers offer unbeatable durability. Your designs will survive countless washes, staying as vibrant as the day they were applied, with no cracks, peeling, or fading. Your customers will appreciate the professional, long-lasting results.
