This product is for waterslide transfers that can be applied to DARK surfaces & substrates as the CLEAR media sheet is first printed with a WHITE layer for your artwork and then the COLOUR layer is printed over the top. This process is known as White Underprint, Underprinting White or simply 'Printing white underneath' :) This is done in a single pass so the alignment of white under the colour layer is perfect.
If you are applying to white substrates or surfaces, please click here to order these transfers instead. This means these transfers can be used on any colour substrate and you are no longer limited to application on white substrates :)
It's a bit more of a process our end so they're more expensive than the normal waterslides we offer. You don't have to change your artwork in any way, just supply the png or other files type that supports transparency and we sort out the processing for the white our end.
Also note that this process is NOT required for white only graphics, this can use our standard waterslide printing process.

* ARTWORK PREPARATION
- Provide your artwork as a PNG, PDF, SVG or TIFF
- Vector artwork must have all fonts and shapes converted to curves
- Minimum of 300dpi (lower resolutions will be scaled up)
- Please leave at least a 10mm margin/border around the whole page to allow for the peeling and trimming process
- Ideally important parts of the design should NOT be less than 1mm thick, some tiny dots may not transfer
- Any WHITE in the design WILL BE PRINTED as this process has the ability to print white. If you don't want the white printing, please remove it from the artwork before submitting as a png with a transparent background
- If your artwork file is larger than 25MB, then it probably won't upload to our site. In this case just upload ANY image file to your order and add a comment during checkout that you're emailing over the full sized file or WeTransfer link for us to use for printing :) Our email can be found in the Contact page top right
