Questions & Answers

What makes DTF Station ColorPrime Hot Melt Powder ideal for performance apparel and activewear?

DTF Station ColorPrime hot melt adhesive powder is specially formulated to emphasize flexibility, elasticity, and crack resistance. When fully cured, it creates highly stretchable transfers that move naturally with the fabric. This makes it the go-to professional choice for printing high-stretch garments like spandex, leggings, athleisure, and tri-blends without worrying about the design peeling or cracking over time.

Can I use ColorPrime Hot Melt Powder on dark or heavily dyed polyester garments?

Yes. While standard white powder is perfect for everyday cotton and light fabrics, the ColorPrime lineup includes a specialized Black Hot Melt Powder variant (available in 2.2 lb / 1 kg bags). ColorPrime Black Powder is specifically engineered to block bad bleed on polyester garments and camouflage patterns, acting as a barrier that prevents dye migration from ruining your white or light-colored ink transfers.

Which fabric types are compatible with DTF Station ColorPrime Powder?

This premium adhesive powder offers excellent, versatile fabric compatibility to support a diverse range of print shop projects. It delivers high-quality adhesion and structural wash-durability across 100% cotton, polyester, poly-blends, nylon, and more, allowing you to streamline your DTF workflow regardless of the substrate.

Can I pick up DTF Station supplies locally to save on freight and shipping costs?

Absolutely! Lawson Screen & Digital Products offers fast local pickup for print shops looking to cut down on shipping expenses and eliminate transit times. You can place your order online and arrange convenient warehouse pickup at either of our main regional distribution hubs:

  • Atlanta / Marietta, Georgia: Located at 1147 Cobb Industrial Drive, Marietta, GA 30066. Conveniently located to service the Southeast digital printing industry.

What packaging sizes are available for the ColorPrime Adhesive line?

To accommodate both small-scale prototyping and high-volume commercial production, we stock this universal adhesive powder in multiple configurations:

  • ColorPrime White: Available in convenient 2.2 lb (1 kg) bags for small-to-mid-sized runs, or large 44 lb (20 kg) bulk boxes designed for automated powder shaker systems.
  • ColorPrime Black: Available in a 2.2 lb (1 kg) bag, perfect for keeping on hand whenever a dark polyester or camo job comes through your shop.

What safety precautions should technicians take when handling this DTF powder?

Because DTF hot melt powder consists of fine adhesive particles that are processed under heat, safety-focused handling is required. Always protect your shop staff by ensuring they wear personal protective equipment (PPE)—including an appropriate dust mask or respirator and protective gloves—to avoid inhalation, skin irritation, or eye contact. Running your curing oven or automatic shaker with a proper ventilation or smoke extraction system is highly recommended.
