Pre-press every shirt before the transfer goes down. Cotton can feel dry and still throw steam when the platen closes, and that steam fights the adhesive. If you see steam, open the press and dry the fabric again. Moisture is a common reason a print lifts. It is not the only one. Check heat, time, and pressure as well.

Insta-Peel is the film we now use for standard gang sheets and cut sheets. On cotton and most fabrics, press at 140°C for 8–10 seconds and peel the carrier as soon as the press opens. On polyester, press at 120°C for 30 seconds and cold peel only, then press again for 10 seconds at 120°C. It is not a household-iron product. Iron-on DTF is a separate range.

Neon DTF is a cold-peel cut sheet in yellow, green, pink, or orange. One colour per 280 × 390 mm sheet. It does not glow and it is not a gang sheet. Cotton and most fabrics: 160°C for 8 seconds, cool, then peel. Polyester: 120°C for 30 seconds, cold peel, then 10 seconds at 120°C. A household iron will not press it.
