WARNING: WARNING: WORK IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA and use Protective Equipment (including masks and gloves) when working with specialty printing and curing products and processes (including DTF, DTG, UV etc.) as fumes and processes may be hazardous. We highly recommend the use of a fume extractor when working with DTF powder in addition to good ventilation and filtration in your work area. The use of all specialty ink printing equipment and supplies such as inks, chemicals, powders etc. are at the sole risk of the user. Specialty inks and film require a good humidity and temperature environment (55% - 75% humidity, and 75° to 80°F) to minimize risk of ink clogs and film buckling.

Technically, yes, you could convert an Epson printer to a Direct-to-Film (DTF) printer - but it is a complicated process that would require intelligent engineering and smart modifications. The process would involve modifying the printer to accommodate DTF inks and films, specific software, hardware adjustments and component changes, and specialized inks. Although some people try to modify off-the-shelf Epson printers for DTF printing, you should keep in mind that most printers are not designed for DTF printing and so are missing many features that are specific to DTF, such as (but not limited to) white ink circulation, white ink agitation, DTF film handling (feeding, pre-heating etc), Professional DTF Printers such as those sold by… See full answer »

Yes DTF will work and has been used on hard substrates, including to skateboards and other items, however DTF is more specific for apparel and made to provide the best possible look and feel for garments (Tshirts, etc), it is not made for hard substrates. For hard substrates, you want to consider UVDTF as it is more resilient, scratch and water resistant for hard substrates than DTF.

After applying the powder, the film is carefully placed inside a curing oven to melt the powder. Powder melting points usually range between 284 - 338℉ depending on different factors. Once melted, the powder becomes an adhesive that allows the design to stick to the garment. If you don’t have a curing oven, a heat press will also work. Ensure not to press it down onto the film by leaving a ⅛” - ¼” gap between the film and the heat press’ top plate, applying heat without touching the film. Once your powder is melted, apply your transfer to your garment and press.
