UV DTF on curved surfaces: what actually sticks

Every surface is different

UV DTF adhesion depends on the surface. Glass, coated metal, powder coating and low-energy plastic need separate sample records.

Buyer note: Keep sample records, carton data and document status connected from first test to repeat order.

Build a simple adhesion test

Record cleaning method, application pressure, curing condition and peel result. Keep photos of failures so the next quote is more accurate.
