UV-DTF Permasticker Application Directions

To ensure your PermaStickers™ adhere correctly, follow these four simple steps.

1. Prep Your Surface and Pre-Squeegee Your UV-DTF Permasticker

Prepping the Area - When necessary, clean the surface of your item before applying the PermaSticker using either soap & water or a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water (50/50 mix). The cleaner the surface, the longer it will endure natural elements, washing, and wear and tear. Although it will adhere without this, it is recommended.

Pre-Squeegee - After cutting your sticker/decal out, place the design face down with the white side facing up. Using the padded end of the included squeegee, run over the whole design with hard pressure, back and forth 2-4 times. Additional pressure and repetitions should be applied on thin and separated design elements, such as small text.

2. Preparing your UV DTF PermaSticker for Transfer

Gently peel the two sheets apart, watching to ensure the whole design lifts off onto the top carrier sheet.  We have a saying in the Dojo - Don’t peel with your hands, peel with your EYES. Designs which contain thin lines and small separated elements, such as small text, the slower you should peel. If parts don't lift, re-squeegee from behind, and attempt to peel again from a different angle. You’ll get a feel for it with experience.

3. Placing Your UV-DTF PermaSticker Onto Your Item

First, identify the placement area on your item.

For smaller designs (4 inches & under), carefully place the design onto the placement area with two hands controlling the placement.

4. Completing the Transfer Process

After placing the design, firmly squeegee it 2-4 times. Peel slowly, watching to ensure all elements stick. Again, the lesson from the Dojo applies here - use your EYES and not just your hands. If any part of the design is not adhering, lay the carrier sheet back down, re-squeegee and try peeling from a different angle.
