Most of the time, the problem started way before you ever hit print. It started with the file itself. That means the key to figuring out how to make DTF transfers that don't crack or peel happens at the design level.  

Almost everyone assumes it's about the printer or the press settings. But the truth is, the DTF file prep is the biggest factor in whether your transfer feels soft or stiff and plasticky - and whether it lasts wash after wash or starts cracking after a few wears.

In this tutorial I'm going to show you exactly how to make a clean, soft, print-ready DTF file - the kind that works on ANY DTF printer and any color garment. I'm going to show the secret to the part most people get wrong, which is the file prep itself.
