UnikPortrait's UV DTF Transfer Stickers are a revolutionary way to add vibrant, durable, and eye-catching 3D transfer labels to various surfaces. To ensure optimal results and longevity, follow this comprehensive guide to apply our UV DTF Transfer Stickers effectively.
1. Surface Preparation and Pre-Squeegee
Surface Preparation:
- Begin by cleaning the surface where you'll apply the 3D transfer label. Use soap and water or a 50/50 mix of rubbing alcohol and water.
- Allow the surface to dry completely before proceeding.
Pre-Squeegee:
- After cutting out your UV DTF Transfer Sticker, place the design face down with the white backing facing up.
- Using the padded end of the included squeegee, apply firm pressure and run over the entire design 2-4 times.
- For intricate designs with thin lines or small text, apply additional pressure and repetitions.
2. Separating the Clear Carrier Sheet
- To detach the clear carrier sheet from the white backing, create a small tear away from the design.
- Gently peel the clear carrier sheet, ensuring the whole design lifts off the white backing. Remember, the slower you peel, the better the results, especially for designs with fine details.
- If any parts of the design do not lift, simply re-squeegee and attempt to peel again from a different angle.
3. Placing Your UnikPortrait UV DTF Transfer Sticker
- Identify the exact placement area for your 3D transfer label on the item.
For smaller designs (4 inches & under):
- Carefully place the design onto the desired area using both hands for precise control.
For larger designs (6 inches & larger):
- Start applying the sticker from one side and gradually work your way to the other side. This technique helps control placement, reduces bubbles, and prevents wrinkling of the carrier sheet.
- Leave a small corner of the carrier sheet unpressed for easy peeling later.
4. Completing the Transfer Process
- Once the design is in place, firmly squeegee the entire area 2-4 times to ensure proper adhesion.
- Slowly peel the carrier sheet, using your eyes to monitor the process and ensure all design elements stick to the surface.
- If any part of the design does not adhere, lay the carrier sheet back down, re-squeegee, and try peeling from a different angle.
