See it glow
Full color by day. Glows at night.
With the lights on it looks like a normal full color print. Turn them off and the design glows. Flip the switch and see both.
Lights on. A normal full color print.
Simulated and sped up on screen. In person, the glow is brightest right after a strong charge and softens over time.
How glow works
Soak up light. Give it back.
Glow DTF prints your full color design with a clear glow coating over it. Light charges the coating, and when the room goes dark it gives that light back as a glow. Each sheet prints on one glow film.
- 1Charge Bright light or sun charges the glow.
- 2Glow Lights off, the design lights up.
- 3Recharge It softens over time. Light charges it again.
- A normal print by day
In daylight your design shows in full color, like any DTF print.
- Glows after soaking up light
Charge it in bright light or sun and it glows when the lights go out.
- Light colors glow brightest
White and light parts of the design give the strongest glow.
Where it glows
Made for shirts that come out at night.
Costume nights, night runs, glow parties and campfires. When the event starts after sunset, a glow print keeps the whole crew easy to spot and great in the photos.

Will my design glow
Light colors glow brightest.
The glow coating covers your design, and the lighter the color underneath, the brighter it glows. Pick a color from your design to see how it glows.

Pressing
Press. Cool. Peel. Charge.
Glow presses like the specialty films you know: steady heat, a full cool-down and a cold peel. Then give it light and it is ready for the night.
- 01 Press at 310°F 15 seconds, medium to firm pressure. Heat press only.
- 02 Let it cool fully Hands off until it is cool to the touch.
- 03 Peel cold Start at a corner, keep the film low and pull back in one smooth motion.
- 04 Charge it Bright light or sun charges the glow. Then lights off.
- Cold peel keeps it whole. A full cool-down keeps the glow layer intact as the film comes off.
- Right heat, right time. Extra heat and time don't add glow, so stay at 310°F for 15 seconds.
- Seal the finish. Optional: press 5 to 10 seconds under a Teflon sheet.
Works onWhite and light cotton, blends and polyester. Settings vary by press, so press a test piece first.

- Turn it inside outThe print faces in for every wash.
- Wash coldMild detergent, no hotter than 104°F.

Rock n Roll PhotographerSo initially I ordered a small batch to see the quality. I was very impressed with the image transfer especially since it was one of my photos. Some companies don’t give a clear image. This one was very very clear. And looks great! I’ll be back for sure.

Best quality with on-time DeliveryI've been using DTF for my transfer artwork over a year now. Very happy with the service.
DaisyVerified DTFSheet customer -
Great!Great service, super quick, and I like the quality. I wish DTF in general were a little more like screen printing. The plastic feeling is less desirable in my opinion, but it is what it is.

Diego O.Verified DTFSheet customer -
Absolutely Perfect!I’m a cosplayer who needed a specific design printed on a DTF transfer, and at first I went to a different website with terrible results, but DTFSheet.com got everything correct the first time! The colors, sizing, and quality are outstanding, and although I haven’t applied this to my project yet, I’m already extremely happy with the transfer just based on...

The colors are vibrant and true to my designs. The pricing is great and i love the free shipping offer. I utilize the largest gang sheet and get the most bang for my buck.

Glow FAQ
Good questions, straight answers.
What is glow in the dark DTF?
A direct to film transfer with a clear glow coating over your full color design. It looks like a normal print by day and glows after soaking up light. You press it on with a heat press, like other DTF transfers.
What does it look like in daylight?
Like a normal full color DTF print. The glow coating is clear, so your colors show as designed with the lights on.
How do I make it glow?
Give it light. Bright light or direct sun charges the glow, and when the lights go out the design lights up. The stronger the charge, the stronger the glow.
How long does it glow?
It glows brightest right after a strong charge and softens gradually in the dark. Any bright light charges it again, so it is ready for the next night.
Which designs glow best?
Designs with large light or white areas. Lighter parts of the design glow brightest, and dark colors glow less, so use dark tones for outlines and details and let the light areas carry the glow.
Does it work on dark shirts?
Glow is brightest on white and light colored garments, on cotton, blends and polyester. For dark garments, press a test piece first.
Can I mix glow and standard designs on one sheet?
Each sheet prints on one film, so every design on a glow sheet comes out glow. Put the designs you want to glow on a glow sheet and the rest on a standard sheet.
How do I press it?
Use a heat press at 310°F for 15 seconds with medium to firm pressure. Let it cool fully, then peel cold. For extra finish, press again for 5 to 10 seconds under a Teflon sheet. Settings vary by press, so test one piece first.
Can I use a household iron?
Use a heat press for glow. It gives the even heat and steady pressure the glow layer needs to bond.
How do I wash it?
Wait 24 hours before the first wash. Turn it inside out, wash cold with mild detergent, skip bleach and fabric softener, and tumble dry low or hang dry.
What if my file has an issue?
Every file is checked by a person before it prints. If we see low quality or sizing issues, we pause production and contact you. If the quality isn't perfect, we reprint it.
