Feel of DTG?
What is the feel of a
DTG transfer?
Is it softer than light coloured transfer? because I have no idea when it comes to
DTG ,
Thanks in advance,

Re: Feel of DTG? First, it is not a transfer. The ink is applied directly to the fabric. Second, you cannot feel the print at all.

Re: Feel of DTG? you can only feel the ink when printing on dark shirts with a white underbase.

Re: Feel of DTG? Even the best light transfer has a bit of a feel to it in the beginning.
DTG ...on lights...has no feel. On darks, with an underbase, it has a bit of a feel similar to a good screenprint.
