DTF hot peel versus cold peel film refers to the film’s temperature for peeling after heat pressing it. With a hot peel, you peel immediately after heat pressing, resulting in a softer feel to the print. A cold peel must cool first, usually about 5 - 10 seconds after heat pressing, although "cold" doesn't mean it has to be truly cold. Cold peel yields a more glossy, thicker feeling finish. Most people prefer hot peel for its softer touch, but cold peel is favored for a more durable, vibrant appearance. Each type offers distinct tactile and visual qualities, catering to different preferences and project needs.
