How it works — UV DTF decal

The UV DTF decal is formulated to adhere to hard, smooth surfaces like glass cans, tumblers, mugs, acrylic, and many plastics. Because no heat press is required, you can apply the decal by cleaning the surface, aligning the design, and pressing the decal into place. The result is a waterproof cup decal that resists scratches and everyday handling on drinkware and bottles. Use the tumbler wrap sizing guide to select the approximate width; height will vary proportionally with the artwork.

How it works — DTF fabric transfer (ready-to-press)

The DTF fabric transfer is a transfer-only option meant for compatible fabric items such as shirts, sweatshirts, and tote bags. A heat press is required to achieve a secure bond and the vibrant full color graphic shown in the artwork. This ready-to-press transfer is ideal for custom shirt print and fabric iron on projects; note that the garment is not included and proper press settings depend on your garment material.

Sizing, placement, and materials

Select the size that references the approximate width of the printed design; height scales with the artwork so exact dimensions will vary. The listing image shows hand-sized examples and a scale for tumbler placement to help match the design to your cup, bottle, or apparel. These transfers are intended for smooth substrates—if you plan to use permanent mug vinyl instead, confirm compatibility and technique separately.

Care and handling

- For UV DTF decals on drinkware: hand washing is recommended to extend decal life and protect the waterproof cup decal finish.

- For fabric transfers: follow heat press instructions for temperature, pressure, and dwell time appropriate to your garment type.

- Colors may vary slightly due to monitors; verify item type and size before ordering.
