Seeing tape marks around the edges of your sublimated metal panels?

Before changing your time, temperature, or pressure settings, check your setup.

In this video, Michael shows how he keeps tension on the transfer paper and why it's important to make sure the tape never slips between the paper and the metal panel.

A small shift can leave visible edge marks that carry through to the finished product.

Have you ever run into tape marks when sublimating metal panels?

Most seasonal sellers focus on one product.

The most successful ones build a collection.

Think about it:

β˜• A mug for morning coffee
🧊 A can cooler for the BBQ
πŸ“ A pickleball paddle for the afternoon
πŸ‘• Apparel for the celebration

The same customer may want more than one product throughout the day.

That's why seasonal collections often outperform single-SKU strategies.

This Canada Day, don't just sell a product.

Sell the season.

What product would you add to your Canada Day collection?

Friendly reminder πŸ«™

White ink naturally settles over time, which is why regular agitation is an important part of DTF maintenance.

A few seconds a day can help keep things running smoothly.

Do you have a daily maintenance routine for your DTF printer?

Thinking about starting a DTF business?

Most people focus on the printer first. But building a successful business involves much more than equipment.

The good news? You don't need to do everything at once.

Start simple. Learn as you grow. Scale when you're ready.

White ink requires a little extra attention.

Unlike CMYK inks, white ink contains heavier pigments that naturally settle over time. Without proper maintenance, this can lead to clogs, inconsistent prints, and unnecessary downtime.

In this carousel, we're covering 4 common white ink maintenance mistakes that can affect your DTF printing results:

βœ” Skipping white ink agitation
βœ” Ignoring humidity levels
βœ” Letting your printer sit idle
βœ” Skipping nozzle checks

A few minutes of maintenance can help prevent hours of troubleshooting later.

πŸ‘‰ Save this post for your next DTF maintenance routine.
