Application overview

The UV decal is cut ready and intended for direct adhesion to clean, dry, hard, smooth drinkware such as glass tumblers, acrylic tumblers, and plastic cups. Because it uses a pressure-applied adhesive, the decal performs as a heatless sticker option that installs quickly and yields a glossy, waterproof surface. For designs intended as cup wraps or glass can wraps, use the selected width to measure circumference and confirm placement before final application.

DTF fabric transfer option

Select the DTF apparel transfer when you require a ready to press shirt transfer for garments. The fabric transfer is sold as the printed transfer only and is meant to be applied with a heat press following recommended pressure, temperature, and timing for your fabric type. The DTF apparel transfer delivers vibrant fabric print results when pressed correctly; it is not a finished garment.

Sizing and placement

Sizing refers to the approximate design width chosen at checkout; height scales proportionally so wrap and apparel layouts retain correct composition. To confirm fit for cup wraps or glass can wraps, measure the tumbler circumference and mock up placement with low-tack tape. For shirts, place the ready to press shirt transfer centered on the garment’s print area and follow heat press guidelines for alignment.

Durability and care

UV-cured inks give a glossy print design that is waterproof and resists light scratching on recommended smooth substrates. When applied to tumblers and mugs as a waterproof mug sticker, avoid abrasive cleaning to extend life; hand washing is recommended for best results on decal-wrapped drinkware. For pressed transfers, follow fabric care instructions after curing to preserve the vibrant fabric print.
