dtf dye migration

Pressed a white design on a red polyester tee and it turned pink a day later? That's dye migration. Here's why polyester does it, which garment colors are worst, and the exact films, temperatures, and blanks that stop it before it ruins a run.

DTF prints that look faded, dull, or washed out usually point to a weak white underbase, a color-management issue, or over-pressing — if they look dull off the press — or to dye migration and harsh washing if they fade later.
