When a compatible off-the-shelf pigment or sublimation printer produces a CMYK-only DTF Hack transfer, there is normally no opaque white layer behind the colors. On dark fabric, that can cause the artwork to appear dull, transparent or almost invisible. Patent-pending <a href="https://dtgpro.com/ciccategory/magicpowder">White or Soft White MagicPowder®</a> solves this problem during the powdering stage. It attaches to the wet CMYK print and, after curing and heat pressing, creates both the adhesive layer and an opaque white backing behind the artwork. No white ink is used or installed in the printer, so there is no white ink to settle, circulate, agitate or clog the printhead. Use Clear MagicPowder for white garments where the fabric supplies the white background, and use White or Soft White MagicPowder for colored, dark or black garments. The result is a brighter, more opaque transfer without the maintenance requirements of a white-ink DTF printer.
