Glitter DTF Transfers

Absolutely. Glitter DTF Transfers are engineered for high durability. When applied with the correct heat and pressure settings, they can withstand over 50 wash cycles without losing their sparkle or peeling. The modern adhesive powder creates a powerful mechanical bond that locks the glitter particles between the ink and the fabric fibers.

Yes, you can use glitter PET film in a standard DTF printer without specialized hardware. However, because the surface is textured and slightly thicker, it is highly recommended to increase your printhead height (platen gap) by about 0.2 mm. This prevents the abrasive glitter surface from scratching the delicate nozzle plate of your printhead.

While standard TPU powder works, many professionals prefer using a Medium or Coarse grade powder for glitter films. The larger grains of these powders fill the gaps between the glitter particles more effectively, ensuring a much stronger bond to the garment. This extra grip is essential for maintaining the transfer's flexibility and preventing cracks over time.
