Order UV DTF when the job leaves the platen. This is hard-goods film — peel-and-apply stickers and decals — not heat-pressed shirt transfers.

UV DTF transfers Canada — what the film is for

Full colour on mugs, tumblers, bottles, phone cases, glass, metal, and many plastics (test first)
Precut (we nest) or UV gang sheet (you nest)
From about $0.03/in² — separate from apparel DTF bulk pricing
Printed in Canada; ship with shirt film on mixed merch orders

How shops apply UV transfers

Clean the substrate, place the transfer, burnish firmly, peel the carrier low and steady. Curves on tumblers need centre-out burnishing so air does not trap. No apparel heat-press temperatures — that film is a different product.

Do not mix films on one quote

Tees and hoodies stay on apparel DTF gang sheets or Easy Upload. Drinkware and rigid goods stay here. Full notes: UV hard-goods guide.

FAQ — UV DTF transfers Canada

Are UV DTF transfers the same as shirt DTF?

No. Shirt film is heat-pressed. UV DTF transfers are UV stickers / decals for hard goods — clean, burnish, peel. Different adhesive and price.

What is the UV price floor?

About $0.03/in² — never quote the apparel $0.015 bulk floor on UV.

Can I get UV cut to size?

Yes. Precut UV (we nest) or nest a UV gang sheet yourself when you want full layout control.

Will UV work on a tee?

No. Soft flexing garments stay on apparel DTF transfers or Easy Upload.

Do you ship UV across Canada?

Yes. UV DTF transfers print and ship from the same Canadian production as apparel film — tracked options on the shipping pages.

What surfaces fail UV?

Dirty, oily, or heavily textured surfaces. Soft flexing fabric. Always test coated plastics and powder-coated metal before a production run.
