Custom DTF Printing Serving Hollywood, FL
DTF handles the mixed-garment orders that come out of Hollywood most often — the Broadwalk restaurant that wants staff tees plus front-of-house polos plus kitchen hoodies for the same season, the ArtsPark event that needs different apparel tiers for volunteers and headliners, the resort catering brief that spans tri-blend crew shirts and moisture-wicking service polos, the Hollywood Boulevard boutique doing a promo apparel line with different fabrics for different price tiers. Because the DTF transfer applies to virtually any fabric, we press cotton, polyester blends, tri-blend, ripstop workwear, and headwear from a single production run.
Larger orders can be delivered to the 33019, 33020, 33021 and 33024 from our Hallandale Beach shop, nine minutes south of Hollywood on Federal Highway. Pickup at 389 NE 2nd Ave is free. Same-day options may be available on rush orders when the artwork is print-ready.
What Is DTF Printing?
Direct-to-film (DTF) printing produces a full-color, high-durability image on a special film that is then heat-pressed onto the finished garment. Because the design is printed on film before it touches the fabric, DTF is not limited by the garment's color, texture or fiber content — the same transfer applies just as cleanly to a white cotton tee as to a black polyester hoodie or a canvas tote.
How the DTF Process Works
Your artwork is printed in full CMYK plus a white underbase onto a specialty PET film. While the ink is wet, a thermoplastic adhesive powder is applied to the print, then cured under heat. The result is a heat-transferable image ready to press onto any garment.
At the press step, we align the transfer onto the finished garment, apply heat (around 305°F) and pressure for about 15 seconds, cool the transfer, and peel the carrier film away. The image bonds directly to the fabric — soft to the touch, stretchable with the fabric, and washable up to 50+ cycles when cared for correctly.
Because we also operate SoFLo DTF, our sister DTF-supply business in South Florida, we control our own transfer film and adhesive-powder sourcing rather than depending on third-party wholesalers. That means fresher transfers, tighter quality control, and pricing that reflects wholesale-plus-application rather than reseller markup.
Because production separates printing from application, DTF suits small runs across many garment types: we print the DTF transfers, then press them onto whatever mix of blanks the order calls for.
DTF vs Screen Printing
Screen printing is the usual method elsewhere for 50+ pieces of the same design, and it is known for long-term wash durability. Adorb doesn't run screen-printing presses, so we print those orders with DTF, with no screens to set up. DTF is an especially good fit under 40–50 pieces (no setup fee, no color-count surcharge), for multi-color or photographic art, and for mixed-garment orders where the same design has to work on cotton, poly, tri-blend, and headwear.
DTF vs DTG Printing
DTG prints ink directly into the fibers of the shirt — it is known for a soft hand-feel on 100% cotton light-colored garments, mostly in single-piece orders. Adorb doesn't run DTG printers, so we print those orders with DTF. DTF is the better fit when the garment isn't ideal for DTG (dark polyester, tri-blend, technical wear, non-cotton, textured fabrics) and on mixed-fabric orders.

Because our shop is nine minutes south of Hollywood, DTF serves the customers whose orders can't be solved by any single fabric or method. Three groups typically order DTF in Hollywood: Broadwalk and beachfront restaurants doing mixed staff-apparel orders, event and hospitality production at the area's casino resorts across multiple garment types, and ArtsPark/Young Circle event apparel where volunteers, staff and guests each need different apparel tiers.
Broadwalk Restaurants & Mixed Hospitality Orders
Restaurants along Hollywood Beach Broadwalk and the beachfront hospitality corridor typically need three or four garment types per staff refresh: front-of-house polos in a moisture-wicking blend, kitchen tees in cotton, event or promo caps for seasonal specials, and sometimes lightweight hoodies for cooler evening service. DTF prints identical logos across all four garment types in a single production run — same equipment, same quality standard.
Beach-side hospitality customers (spa, valet, and catering crews at the hotels along the Broadwalk corridor, boutique beachfront hotels) use DTF specifically because their garment mix varies seasonally — cotton in winter, moisture-wicking in summer, structured jackets for events. We keep artwork on file, and most seasonal refreshes are ready in 1 to 10 days, depending on order size. Larger orders can be delivered to Broadwalk properties.
What You Can Print via DTF
DTF works on virtually any garment type and fabric — that's what makes it the right method for mixed-garment Hollywood orders.
Garments & Fabrics
Garments: t-shirts, long-sleeves, polos, hoodies, sweatshirts, jackets, tote bags, aprons, caps, tank tops, jerseys, workwear, dresses.
Fabrics: 100% cotton, cotton/poly blends (any ratio), tri-blend, ringspun cotton, 100% polyester, moisture-wicking performance, tri-blend performance, ripstop workwear, canvas, denim, headwear. Both dark and light garments print equally well — white underbase in the DTF transfer means colors stay bright on black just as on white.
Color & Design Capabilities
No color-count surcharge — a 12-color design costs the same as a 2-color. Photographic art, gradients, fine detail, small text down to 8pt, halftones, hand-drawn artwork all reproduce accurately. Pantone color matching available on request.
Print sizes: Left-chest 3.5" · Full-front up to 12" · Full-back up to 14"×16" · Sleeve up to 3"×12" · Cap front up to 4.25"×2.25" · Cap back/side up to 3" · Tote/apron up to 12"×14".

DTF Printing in Hollywood — frequently asked questions
What fabrics can you print with DTF?
Virtually any fabric: 100% cotton, polyester, tri-blend, moisture-wicking performance fabric, ripstop workwear, canvas, denim, and headwear panels. Both dark and light garments print equally well — the white underbase in the transfer keeps colors bright on black garments just as on white.
Is there a minimum order for DTF printing?
No minimum. One shirt or five hundred — same process, same quality. DTF is specifically suited to small runs and mixed-garment orders where screen printing setup would cost too much.
How does DTF compare to screen printing?
Screen printing wins on 50+ pieces of the same design on the same garment — cheaper per shirt and slightly more durable at the extreme end of the wash curve. DTF wins on everything else: orders under 40–50 pieces, multi-color and photographic art, mixed-garment orders (shirts + hoodies + caps in one run), and any fabric that isn't ideal for screen printing.
How does DTF compare to DTG?
DTG prints ink directly into cotton fibers and produces a softer, more natural feel on 100% cotton light garments. DTF wins on fabric versatility (any fabric, any color), on mixed-garment orders, and on price above 10–15 pieces. When a customer isn't sure, we quote both and recommend based on the specific garment, design, quantity, and deadline.
Can I get DTF printing same-day in Hollywood?
Sometimes, on rush orders. Same-day may be possible for small orders on garments we stock when the artwork is print-ready. Call ahead with your deadline and we'll tell you honestly whether we can meet it.
What's the difference between DTF and UV DTF?
Standard DTF (this page) is for fabric garments — shirts, hoodies, caps, workwear. UV DTF is a different process for rigid hard substrates: phone cases, tumblers, water bottles, wood signage, and hard-surface promo items. We offer both; see our UV DTF page for hard-substrate orders.
