FAQs
What are UVDTF stickers?
UVDTF, short for “Ultraviolet Direct to Film,” is a cutting-edge method for creating high-quality stickers.
It involves printing designs directly onto a special film using UV-curable inks. After printing, a UV-sensitive adhesive layer is applied and cured with ultraviolet light, making the stickers extremely durable and resistant to fading, scratching, and weathering.
UVDTF stickers are ideal for branding, personalisation, and decoration on various hard surfaces.
How long do UVDTF stickers last?
UVDTF provides a long-lasting and durable print.
UV light cures the ink, creating a strong bond with the material and enhancing adhesion. This process makes the print resistant to light, water, friction, and fading, resulting in dense and durable prints that remain effective over time.
What can you put UVDTF on?
UVDTF printing is versatile and can be applied to various materials, including metal, leather, wood, paper, plastic, ceramic, and glass.
Perfect for custom solutions such as tumblers, drinkware, candle jar, keychain, stationary, skincare/cosmetic bottles, essential oil bottles, equipment branding, gift box, hampers, hard hat, wood covers, phone cases, leather wallets, artistic decor, awards and trophies, car stickers, kitchenware, and window decals.
Are UVDTF stickers dishwasher and microwave safe?
Although UV DTF stickers are durable and water-resistant, they may not withstand the high heat and harsh detergents in dishwashers. It’s also better not to put them in the microwave to avoid potential damage.
Handwashing is recommended to ensure their longevity.
How to use UVDTF stickers?
Step 1: Clean and Pre-Squeegee
- Clean the surface for better adhesion
- Place the UVDTF sticker with the white side up and press down with a squeegee or card.
Step 2: Peel and Position
- Make a small tear and slowly peel the clear carrier sheet from the white backing, ensuring the design transfers to the clear sheet.
- Lay the design starting from one side, smoothing it out to avoid bubbles and wrinkles.
Step 3: Squeegee and Peel
- Press firmly with a squeegee, then slowly peel off the clear sheet, ensuring the design sticks.
- Re-squeegee any parts that don’t transfer.
