UV DTF Tumbler Decals, Waterproof Adhesive Scratch Resistant 3.5in

Designed for stainless and glass drinkware, our kits include uv dtf tumbler decals as a waterproof adhesive label option that sticks without a heat press and resists scratches from daily use. Each decal is cut to an approximate design width with proportional height so you can choose tumbler wraps or mug stickers that fit printable areas. The UV decal adheres to acrylic, glass, and many smooth plastics while a separate DTF heat transfer is supplied as a ready to press design for garments. Verify size and product type before ordering to ensure consistent adhesion and color across screens accurately.

Product overview

These listings present two finishing options from the same Koda Bear artwork file: a UV DTF tumbler decal for hard, smooth surfaces and a DTF transfer intended for fabric. Choose the UV decal when you need custom cup decals or glass can art that adheres like a permanent adhesive label and stands up to everyday handling. Choose the DTF heat transfers option when you want a ready to press design for apparel; garments are not included. Size selections refer to the design width only so heights scale to preserve artwork proportions and fit most printable areas.

Compatibility and materials

The UV decal performs best on clean, non-porous surfaces such as stainless tumblers, glass cans, acrylic, and many smooth plastics. These peel and stick decals behave like waterproof vinyl labels and resist water and abrasion for everyday use. The DTF transfer option requires a shirt heat press and compatible fabrics; it is sold as transfer only and should be applied following the transfer supplier’s instructions for temperature and dwell time.

Application tips

For UV decal application, thoroughly clean and dry the surface, align the design, and apply slowly to minimize bubbles; no heat press is required. For DTF heat transfers, use a professional heat press for consistent results and follow recommended settings to achieve a vibrant, durable applique. A household iron may produce inconsistent adhesion compared with a press.

Design and care

Artwork suits coastal decor and beach aesthetics, making these decals and transfers appropriate for seaside gifts, casual apparel, or coastal tumbler wrap projects. UV decals are waterproof and offer a scratch resistant finish; gently hand-wash decorated drinkware and avoid abrasive cleaners to prolong appearance. Fabrics with DTF transfers should follow the fabric and transfer supplier’s laundering guidelines after the recommended cure period.
