Yamation DTF Powder Adhesive White 500g / 1.1lb DTF Transfer Powder Hot Melt Adhesive applies to All DTF Transfer Printers for Digital Prints on T-Shirts Textile DTF Supply with DTF PET Film and Ink

It has been a frustrating experience to do the sublimation DTF hack with Yamation film and powder - I went through about 25 sheets of film trying to get it to work (argh!). For anyone else frustrated with streaks/roller marks on their film, I found that I could change the print density by going to the Maintenance Tab (of my Epson SC-F100) and selecting Extended Settings. From there, I dragged the slider to the left so it was around -25%. This eliminated most streaking for me. If a design has a lot of black in it, maybe go even more negative with your number. If a design doesnt have much black at all, then go for a smaller negative number. I can get away with about -5% for an image with little to no black. Other things that might work for you are to choose the Rigid profile, or to choose Standard quality. But I use the Textile profile and high quality and then reduce the print density as described. I bake my powdered design at 385 degrees for 2 to 3 minutes on the bed of my HTVRont auto press. Obviously, I dont bring the press down, but just let it hover. Because it is a few inches above, it takes more than a minute. Because the sublimation ink has already been activated through this process, it isnt necessary to press the design at such a high temperature as you would with sublimation. After having conquered the problems with streaks, I then went about experimenting with pressing times, temps, and pressures. Following the recommendations on the package for temps and times did produce a nice result on the shirt, but the designs were degrading quickly upon washing. After a bunch of further experimentation, I found that I needed to do a higher temp and higher press time in order to have the design really adhere and last through washings. I think the success of this whole process really depends upon your equipment - basically your press and your printer and your ink. Be prepared for problems in figuring it out. Now that I HAVE figured it out for my setup, I do like the products and will continue to use them. But boy oh boy, was this a struggle to get it right! Note that for the Epson SC-F100, I do NOT need to apply the film to a piece of paper with tape, as others would tell you. It feeds right through my machine with no issues as is. If you have a different printer, your experience may be different. For anyone who has the HTVRont auto press trying to do this hack, put a pressing pillow beneath your garment to trick the press into applying more pressure. Also, for me, I need to press at 345 degrees for 45 seconds to get a good result and to get the design to last through washings. I do NOT do a second press with a teflon sheet on top as others recommend. This tends to remove ink and degrade the design in my experience. I find that after the first washing, the design feels more embedded into the fibers as it would if you did a second press anyway.

Ok this was my very first time ever doing a DIY DTF Inkjet print and it came out awesome. I tried it because I was told that you can buy the DTF transfer paper for inkjet printers and you don’t have to have a special ink for the use along with this DTF powder to get an awesome print for your printable project and it works. This made my picture more vibrant and I truly like the outcome. Now you have to use DTF Transfer paper with this powder and it’s very simple to use. You print and immediately after printing you put enough powder on the print out until there is like a powdery finish and you can iron it on your project. I will definitely purchase when I’m finished using what I have. You will need a sturdy container to put your project in so that you don’t get the product everywhere. I truly recommend

I didnt get this product for the intended use, but for something else. I needed to darn my sons pants and while I was looking for a tutorial video on YouTube, someone was using the powder to adhere 2 layers of fabric to pinch a hole before they started darning it. Before I found out about the product, I used the double sided fusible web, but I feel like it adds too much thickness. I will use this powder while altering my shorts/pants next. One thing to complain is like someone else mentioned, it doesnt come in a resealable bag. I will need to transfer it since it will be a long time until I run out of it!

Excellent Product!

This DTF powder works, and it works great on polyester shirts.

I don’t know if I got a defective batch or what. But no matter what I do, the powder doesn’t cure and won’t press onto a shirt.

i tried it i love it so i will be ordering more

Stuff works awesome! Very easy to use with great results. I saw someone above gave one and said it wouldnt work for them, they also mentioned it was smoking and made her eyes water. Im going to go out on a limb here and say she had the temp on her heat press waaaaayyyyy too high.

I like it only used once a lot going on for Christmas. How do you store the powder/crystals

It was so easy to use. Great value for the money as it is a large quantity. I dont have a heat press but melted it in my oven for a minute and it worked like a charm.
