Full color DTF transfers are the best option when you want bold, vibrant prints with gradients, shading, fine detail, and photo-style artwork—without screens or vinyl weeding.

At Axo Brands, ordering full color DTF transfers is simple. You can build a custom gang sheet online to pack multiple designs into one order, upload a print-ready gang sheet for fast production, or order transfers by size for clean logos and consistent placement. Whether you’re printing one design or a full collection, full color DTF gives you the freedom to create what customers actually want to wear.


What Are Full Color DTF Transfers?

Full color DTF (Direct-to-Film) transfers are designs printed onto film using full color printing, then applied to garments with a heat press. Unlike limited-color methods, full color DTF lets you print:

  • gradients and fades

  • photo-style artwork

  • detailed illustrations

  • small text and fine lines

  • multi-color logos and complex designs

This makes full color DTF perfect for modern apparel—especially streetwear designs, brand logos, custom merch, and high-detail artwork.


Why Full Color DTF Transfers Are Perfect for Custom Apparel

If your customers want standout designs, full color makes the difference.

1) Unlimited design freedom

Full color DTF supports complex artwork without charging you per color. That means you can print bold designs without limiting creativity.

2) Higher perceived value

Vibrant, detailed prints look premium—helping you charge more for finished garments.

3) Great for small runs and bulk runs

Whether you’re making one shirt or a full batch, DTF keeps production simple and efficient.

4) Faster than traditional setup-heavy methods

No screens, no long setup, no weeding—just order the transfers and press.

5) Great for repeat customers and reorders

DTF is consistent, making it ideal for customers who reorder brand merch, uniforms, or best-selling designs.

Make Full Color Prints Look More Premium with ProTex

Full color designs can sometimes look shinier depending on garment type and press conditions. A textured finishing sheet helps reduce shine and gives prints a more premium, professional finish—especially on large graphics.
