Industry Value and Performance Rating
What they don’t want you to know!
Top Dog Film™ products are first tested at the manufacturing facility. A team of engineers and chemist put all our films through rigorous testing for 6 months before the product is released to the general public. Fact, we use all our own films in daily production for an unlimited amount of custom embellishment and fabric personalization. Many customers come to us with an idea and we develop a product around that idea to stay up date with new trends and market indicators. Our product test are run on this criteria. Comfort, durability, flexibility, universal applications, wash, wear, dry-clean, and ink color fastness for our printable films. Wash tests are conducted at 140° C. Our scale rating is from 1 to 4, 4 being the highest. All our products are a 4 or they would not be in the market.
Okay, so cotton seems to work for you, but when you move away from cotton, and move into difficult fabrics, especially performance sportswear. Here are the facts that will help you avoid disappointment.
What they don’t want you to know.
•Many film and printed images deteriorate after 4-5 washings.
•Shirts from direct to garment printers. They fade after 1-3 washing.
•Oeko Tex Standard. Does everyone live up to this? No especially when using PVC.
•If it is PVC and mixed Polyurethane-It is a hybrid with PVC.
•Some say there films meet Oeko Tex standard?. Okay which film. This label is abused by many.
•? test 5 films, one passes, so they declare all 5 meet the standard.
•PVC- Is not Safe for Kids to Wear.
•PVC does not stretch and return. It is a hard substrate.
•PVC is a rigid film with plasticizers. soft when it is hot, hard when it cools.
Fact:
•Lower the % of Polyurethane= less flexibility
•100% Polyurethane. Just one critical component to performance wear.
Enough stated.
•There is One Film and adhesive for all fabrics. TDF .
•Quality vs. Price and Performance. Test it. Ask for a sample.
•TDF will give you a sample to heat press on your garment.
•Results Transfer Films are 4 way Stretch and Rebound.
•Our competition. Plenty of Ink Rub off?
•Wash and Wear Disasters
What they CANNOT SHOW YOU. .
Try this!
1.Print on the film.
Without pre-heating. Cut through the color bleed. Does it Curl. For island deign use Results reusable MASK. Immediately heat apply to the garment. Make a sample, one off, show it, close the sale. Did the film settle into the fabric? Can you pick the edges up? no hand and touch from fabric to edge of film
Recommend fabrics, nylon, polyester, lycra, micro-fiber or spandex. (nylon, pre-heat 15 seconds, let cool, then heat apply film). Challenge yourself.
2. Print and Wait. All our competition makes you wait 4-24 hours before you can heat press into the garment..
3. The best tests for wash and wear results. WEAR IT. Can anyone compete against Top Dog Film WE doubt it.
a. Rub a coin aggressively on the print. Does the film come away from the shirt?
b. Does the ink come off. TDF does not. We use an patented top-coat.
c. Rub two sides of the print together. Look for ink rub-off.
d. Heat press and put together, does the film stick together, OURS does not.
e. Wash it 5 times, 10 times, 20 times. Compare it to the original.
4. Does one roll go on all fabrics? Or do you need multiple rolls? try one film on top of another, metallic as well..
5. Super Soft hand and feel remaining after the first wash. How about 1 day after heat application.
6. Competition ” A larger print only gets worse”.
7. Wrinkle free! after washing, garment may be wrinkled, you should be able to iron out the film image. Turn garment inside out and iron. Did the print iron out?
