What Makes Our UV-DTF Stickers Different
Epic Marks UV-DTF stickers are a quick and easy way to customize any smooth hard surface. Unlike standard DTF transfers that require a heat press, UV-DTF creates professional-grade peel-and-stick decals with vivid full-color printing and incredible detail.
- No Heat Press Needed — Apply by hand to any clean, smooth surface. Perfect for crafters without heat equipment.
- Works on Hard Surfaces — Tumblers, mugs, glass, acrylic, plastic, metal, wood, phone cases, and more.
- Vibrant Full-Color Prints — UV-cured ink delivers sharp detail and vivid colors that pop.
- Waterproof When Sealed — Add epoxy or sealant for drinkware that survives the dishwasher.
- Won’t Crack or Peel — Resistant to fading, scratching, and everyday wear.
- Flexible for Curves — UV-DTF film conforms to curved surfaces like tumblers without wrinkling.
Application Instructions
1. Prep Surface
Clean with rubbing alcohol, let dry completely
2. Peel Backing
Remove the white backing film from the sticker
3. Position
Place sticker on surface, adjust as needed
4. Press Firmly
Use fingers or squeegee, work from center outward
5. Remove Top Film
Peel away the clear laminate layer
6. Seal (Optional)
Apply epoxy or clear coat for drinkware durability
Pro Tip: For best adhesion on tumblers, apply at room temperature and let cure for 24 hours before sealing with epoxy. This allows the adhesive to fully bond with the surface.
Frequently Asked Questions
Regular DTF transfers require a heat press and work on fabric (t-shirts, hoodies, etc.). UV-DTF creates peel-and-stick decals for hard surfaces like tumblers, glass, and plastic—no heat required. They’re completely different products for different applications.
UV-DTF works on smooth, hard surfaces including: tumblers, glass, ceramic mugs, plastic, acrylic, metal, wood, phone cases, laptops, and more. It does NOT work on fabric—use standard DTF for that.
No! That’s the beauty of UV-DTF. Just peel off the backing, position the sticker on your surface, and press firmly with your hand or a squeegee. No heat press, no special equipment needed.
The stickers themselves are water-resistant, but for drinkware and items that will be washed, we recommend sealing with epoxy or a clear spray sealant. This makes them fully waterproof and dishwasher-safe.
1) Clean the surface with rubbing alcohol and let dry. 2) Peel the backing off the sticker. 3) Position on the tumbler and press firmly from center outward. 4) Remove the clear top film. 5) Seal with epoxy or clear coat for durability.
Yes! UV-DTF film is flexible and conforms to moderately curved surfaces like tumblers and mugs. For tight curves, apply slowly and press as you go to avoid air bubbles.
PNG at 300 DPI with a transparent background works best for crisp, vibrant prints. We also accept JPG and PDF files.
With proper application and sealing, UV-DTF stickers can last years on items that aren’t frequently washed. On drinkware with epoxy coating, expect excellent durability through regular hand washing and occasional dishwasher cycles.
