📋 Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Position Your Garment
Lay your shirt or fabric flat on the press. Pre-press it for 3–5 seconds to remove moisture and wrinkles.

Step 2: Place the Transfer
Position your Back Pocket DTF transfer face-up (design side up, film side down) where you want the design to appear.

Step 3: Press the Transfer
Close your heat press using the recommended settings:

• 315°F

• Medium to High Pressure

• Press for 10–15 seconds

Use a Teflon or parchment sheet if needed, but it’s not required.

Step 4: Peel the Film
Wait a few seconds, then peel either hot or cold — Back Pocket DTF transfers allow both options. Start from a corner and peel smoothly.

Step 5 (Optional): Repress for Matte Finish
For a softer, more matte look and extra durability, cover the design with a Teflon sheet and press again for 5 seconds.

🧼 Wash & Care Tips:

• Wait 24 hours before washing

• Turn garment inside out

• Do not bleach or iron directly on the print

---

🛠️ Common Tips for Success:

• Use firm, even pressure across the full design

• If the transfer isn’t sticking fully, increase pressure slightly

• For thick fabrics (like hoodies), press for the full 15 seconds
