Transform Your Apparel with Distress Overlays in DTF Printing
Direct to Film Transfers (DTF)
What is distress, and how is it utilized in DTF printing?
Distress is a design technique where deliberate imperfections are added to the artwork digitally before printing. This overlay reduces the amount of ink deposited, resulting in a softer feel on the garment and allowing for greater flexibility and breathability due to thinner ink layers.
What are the benefits of using distress in my DTF transfers?
Using distress in DTF transfers enhances garment aesthetics by imparting a vintage or worn-out look, perfect for creating character and uniqueness to your prints. It allows for customization, masking imperfections, and fostering brand identity through storytelling, offering versatile artistic expression across various garment types.
How do I set up my images for high-quality distress DTF prints?
- For optimal DTF transfers, select high-resolution images (at least 300 DPI or “Dots per Inch”) to avoid pixelation or blurriness.
- Using large and bold graphics ensures the distress effect is noticeable and enhances overall design impact.
- Choosing complementary earthy or muted color schemes enhances the vintage aesthetic of distressed prints.
