This DTF film is a double matte, hot peel transfer film sold in 328 feet rolls, in four widths: 24", 16.5", 13", and 12". Print your design with DTF inks, powder, cure, press, and peel hot in about 3 seconds.
It produces sharp, vibrant transfers on both light and dark fabrics, works with most DTF printers, and ships same day from Stafford, Texas.
What Is DTF Film?
DTF film, also called DTF transfer film, is the carrier sheet at the center of direct-to-film printing. Your design is printed onto the film with DTF inks, coated with hot melt adhesive powder, and cured. The film then carries the finished design to the garment, where a heat press bonds it to the fabric.
The film's coating and finish decide how cleanly ink lays down, how easily the film releases after pressing, and how sharp the final transfer looks. That is why film is one of the three consumables, along with ink and powder, that every DTF run depends on.
Why Choose This DTF Transfer Film?
✓3-Second Hot Peel
Peel the film while it is still hot, about 3 seconds after pressing. No waiting for sheets to cool between garments.
✓Double Matte Finish
Matte coating on both sides for a polished transfer surface and clean handling through the printer.
✓Hot or Cold Peel
Built as a hot peel film, but it also supports cold peeling when a job or operator prefers it.
✓Light & Dark Fabrics
Carries full color designs to light garments and color plus white layers to dark and black fabric.
✓Wash-Durable Transfers
Finished prints stand up to repeated washing without fading or cracking off the garment.
✓Broad Printer Compatibility
Runs on most DTF printers, in roll widths that match common machine sizes from 12" to 24".
Hot Peel vs Cold Peel DTF Film
Peel type describes when you remove the film after pressing, and it directly shapes how fast your production line moves.
Why hot peel saves time
- No cooling wait between garments: press, peel in seconds, and move to the next shirt.
- On batch runs, seconds saved per transfer add up to real capacity over a production day.
- This film still supports cold peeling, so you can slow down for jobs where you prefer it.
What double matte adds
- A matte coating on both sides, instead of one matte and one glossy face.
- The matte surface gives transfers a polished, professional look on the garment.
- Consistent handling: sheets and rolls feed and stack cleanly through your workflow.
