Thanks for the info and your time..
I’ve been reading a couple of your other post and kind of got an appreciation the process - The transfer sheet is necessary to absorb the “ink’s base” and dries the face side of the transfer, it is also heat reactivated so that it can release from the transfer sheet. On the other side of the DTF ink, the powder does the same thing - it absorbs the inks base, dries the ink and is also heat reactivated.. (So the reason for using a larger grain powder made specifically for the DTF inks, it it’s ability to absorb the inks carrier) - A heated activated, dry sandwich..
Are these DTF inks the same thing being used for M&Rs Digital Squeegee and like technology? If so, I saw a digital white (I believe on PolyOne) that they are offering for inkjet applications - That’s a possible white and perhaps, so is discharge white, I also saw a new, no powder transfer white - Never mind making these two processes work together, it matters, for my model, that I don’t run white through the inkjet heads if I don’t have too..
Also, are there different transfer film textures like matte and gloss? In the videos I’ve watched, DTF appears a bit glossy..
