DTG vs DTF: Deep Dive and Techniques on a Shirt!

Good comparison. The white boy has experience I can tell. DTF is more vibrant while DTG has slightly softer feel. Not bad considering the price difference.

What laser printer do you use for the DTF?

Love unique sock designs? @‌fastdtftransfer has the secret to festive magic! 🧦✨ How do you express yourself through DTF printing?

DTG prints feel cheap and crappy. There’s no texture, and limited flex-like a big flat lump of plastic on your shirts chest. It’s really misleading when shirt manufacturers call these ‘screen printed’

how about after you wash them both for a few times, does it stay as vibrant ?

Also depends on quality of ink, powder, film along with how tuned the icc profile is for the dtf.

I liked your video thanks. Does DTG hold up to repeative wears vs DTF

nice

which would u recommend for someone new to the industry?

He said a soft tittie 😂😂

Excellent comparison well done for taking the constructive criticism and acting upon it 👍 ...... now does the handle of the print being softer mean better in your book? because if we are referring to screenprint quality depending on the ink used ie plastisol or water based its a lot better to have a rougher finish which is closer to a standard screenprint 😉

First time viewer. Loved the message at the end of this. Just made my day a little brighter. Thank you.

the dog said, Quit playin wit be bruh 😂

Please do more videos like this bro. It’s so needed. DtG of course but dtf is affordable 🤷🏾‍♂️

All i can say Thanks, all i can ask keeping making

DTF colors POP!

You skimmed right over the BIGGEST part of EVERY DTG shirt that requires white ink on the garment. The PRETREATMENT process. No pretreat or crappy pretreatment and crappy application and the print will look like chit. Proper PT application is ESSENTIAL to all DTG prints. Throw that fence painter in the garbage or leave it in the garage where it belongs. Get a dedicated PT machine and never look back. (I'd suggest the Viper MAXX with Image Armor Platinum PT) Let your DTG prints shine! PT doesn't have to be a pain if you understand it and think about it the right way.

I agree as a screen printer that is the better choice for longevity, if cured properly. I loved your comparison of DTG vs DTF. I have explored DTG and I find that relative thin white fonts are already breaking down after 7-8 washings. Have you tested white fonts in that 40 point range in DTG vs DTF? I like the convenience of those processes for small order but quality control is still important. Of the 2 processes for the problem i have described do you see an advantage of DTG over DTF. thanks, Ola Kola Koala

Great video

The dtf clearly has the smallest print because people are not printing large jumbo print dtf transfers

I honestly can’t tell the difference! You did a great job on the shirts

I know dtf last longer

I like dtg

I dont want to be biased cause I work around DTF but the colors on your DTF were much more vibrant

Yessirrrr! Love the content bro! You know I’m DTF all day

So which one is best to start my printing on garments business DTG or DTF

THANKS for this vid. New to the game and this helps with my samples.

What's the best graphics editor to use for the kind of graphic printouts in your video? Thanks! =).

😂😂🎉🎉Bro that was an excellent, Excellent experiment

Thanks

where do i order these dtf?

Biggest misconception with either product is comparing it to screen printing. Screen printing is always going to be number one because of the feel and longevity of the product. DTF/DTG is a great alternative to integrate designs including multiple colors and effect. It's all going to boil down to the customer preference and explaining why it's a better product. DTF/DTG has made itself into homes by alternating a printer or ordering prints from a 3rd party at an affordable price. It's always been screen printing vs vinyl for years. Being in business for over 15 years in screen printing and trying both DTF/DTG. Hands down to DTG on an Epson or Ricoh!!!!! The more you invest in yourself, will lead you to a customer base who is willing to pay anything for your work.

I wonder why designers dont do a knock out black on designs? Remove the black on black shirts

Was the dtf transfer made with the dtg machine

@Humanitees if you want you can send me the file I will take out all black in the one version and i will add halftones to the second version, i will send the files back to you and then you can print them with dtf and do the comparison again

Really great video. Seems you used people in the shop to do the test because of their end comments, but that very final part of the video - where you held up both shirts and scratched them was priceless. Buy why is DTG softer, the "ink"? Or do you think it is because you are pressing it from film? If the "inks" were the same, would they feel the same? Very, very interesting video. Thank you for taking the time to create the video. This is boss level info. Now... Which one holds up to washing better? Take both those shirts and wash them a ton of times, and do a washablity test video. :) Cheers!

😮🔥🔥🔥🔥

What blanks did you use / are you wearing ?

can still see the white outline (underbase). some other problem with dtf is that if u cant remove the excess powder, it will be forever on that shirt. but yeah, some people can accept it some people dont.

you made for this bro

Quality work bro🔥🔥
