This is pretty groundbreaking stuff! I remember when I was first introduced to DTG a decade ago. I used to call up Coldesi for technical support. I never thought all these processes could eventually evolve into a Film Transfer process. Soo good coldesi! Would it help to warm up the metal substrates to relieve some of the surface tension?
I've been trying to do this with my products by using my Cricut to cut out words, but it's too time consuming. This would be a game changer for smaller businesses. If you look at some cosmetic products their labels are basically tattooed onto their jars. The general public hasn't had much access to this or well I wasn't aware that it was. I didn't even know what it was actually called. This is the closest thing to it that I've seen. I really want to find someone who will print them up for me so I can use them for my jars. If you guys can help with this please let me know.
Quite honestly it’s nothing new. I’ve been doing UV printing since 2006 and we’ve been able to print on film since 2007 so long as you backed it with white it’s not something new but congratulations to you on doing this on those products.
I need your help in a matter and I apply it in the same way, but after printing, when separating the A film from the B film, although I am very careful, do the paints have wrinkles in the paint? I need your help in this matter.
I have a mutoh 1624 not sure if u have something similar im experimencing smudging and i cant seem to see or know why as i dont hear any noise my maintenance station is used but still looks in good condition why does the smudging of black occur ? Also slowly getting banding to
I have a question. I've got some uv prints getting done for bmx parts. Specifically a bmx sprocket, the sprocket has a hole in the center . The print will cover the hole, but obviously there is no material where the whole is. Do you think it would mess up the application when trying to remove it ? Perhaps taking up the rest of the decal ? (Hope I'm making sense)
@@ColDesiColman thank you for your reply. Very much appreciated. Perhaps I incorrectly labeled the type of print I'm getting . I believe they are UV transfer. I looked at some product reviews and see that buyers typically got these prints to later adhere to packaging, in some instances even awards . I've ordered them to place onto a metal BMX sprocket . The application shows you apply the print, apply pressure and then pull off a top layer . My concern was the hole in the center of the sprocket . Having nothing behind it that small area would be "unstuck." When removing the top layer I'm hoping it does not cause an issue.
This is nice to see but I’m trying to understand the sheet used. Is that a special dtf sheet with a dtf pickup or is that just any sheet with glue picked up by the backing paper. I can see that no powder was used so I’m guessing the glue was already on the sheet. I’m looking at costs. Printer cost + cost of that sheet, release paper etc. Thanks.
Got it: It is a special UV direct to film kit - you can find the details here: colmanandcompany.com/Laminator-and-UV-Film-kit.html And the printer is a Mutoh, you can find that printer and pricing here: coldesi-uvprinter.com/mutoh-461uf-uv-printer/
I have been looking for this PET film. It is final arrive!! Can I order sample to try it? I bought some film before from China and it didn't work. What will be the pricing on this films?
Do you have any wholesale partners that you can recommend that will sell the finished decals ready to go? I am a promo distributor and would love to have access to a supplier of decals like this.
How long will the decal last on the tumbler/ glass /drinkware ? Can this be done on a ceramic coffee mug ? What are the care instructions for finished product ? Handwash only , dishwasher safe etc?
Hi Luna! Our UV experts aren't available to answer specific questions on RU-vid. But if you live chat them they can explain all the details to you. Just go ahead and put any questions in the live chat box on the bottom right of this page - compressuvprinter.com/uv-printer-options/
@@ColDesiColman your “UV Experts” can’t answer a simple product question on youtube? Is it dishwasher safe or not? What’s the expected performance? I’d refuse to do business with a company that doesn’t want to publicly disclose basic product info… and I’m sure many others feel the same
I don’t want to buy a printer I want to buy the transfers. Can you connect me with one of your customers so I can purchase transfers for my business. Awesome product!
Couldn't be a end product for usable conditions....all images should be glazed, resined, sealed to be usable under certain condiotions, unless more complex print baking method is involved.
No - UV printing is not for apparel. DTG (direct-to-garment) printing is somewhat similar in the way that it prints directly on apparel. Check out this video to see how it works - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s__f6sbNGxI.html

@@ColDesiColman Ok. Anyway, I found a local print shop (chinese) here who converted an Epson L1800 into a UV ink printer for $1960 with white ink but without a varnish. Thou the maximum printarea is only 8x14 inches because it still uses the paper roller and has no vacuum tray to hold the film. And also doing the same process. What I am concern about is the printhead prone to clogging? Because I'm not printing stickers on a daily basis. What if we do not use the printer for 3days? Is it hard to maintain a UV printer? Thanks!
