Storage & Care Guide
How to store transfers you haven’t pressed yet, and how to care for finished products so they last.
📦 Storing Unused Transfers
- Keep transfers flat or loosely rolled — avoid tight folds, which can crack the print.
- Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Heat and UV exposure can weaken adhesive over time.
- Keep transfers in their original packaging or a sealed bag until you’re ready to press — dust and moisture can affect adhesion.
- Stored properly, unused transfers hold their quality for months — no rush to use them all right away.
👕 Caring for Pressed DTF Garments
- Wash inside-out in cold water for the longest-lasting print.
- Use a gentle or hand-wash cycle where possible — heavy machine cycles wear prints out faster.
- Avoid bleach or fabric softener directly on the printed area.
- Air dry or tumble dry on low heat. Skip high-heat drying — it’s the single biggest cause of premature cracking or fading.
- If ironing the garment later, iron inside-out and avoid direct heat on the print.
⭐ Expected durability: 50–100+ washes when pressed and cared for correctly
✨ Caring for UV DTF Stickers & Decals
- Once applied, avoid touching or pressing on the design for the first 24 hours to let the adhesive fully set.
- Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive scrubbing or harsh solvents.
- PermaStickers are scratch- and weather-resistant, but aren’t rated for mission-critical or extreme-wear surfaces.
- Best suited to smooth, rigid surfaces — glass, metal, hard plastic, wood. Not recommended for fabric, leather, or stretchy/flexible materials.
