Transfer Aging in Storage

low
storage
adhesion

Old transfers crack or lift after weeks due to storage conditions.

Likely Causes

  1. Exposure to UV light: Degrades the adhesive polymer.

  2. Extreme temperature or humidity swings: Causes the adhesive layer to become brittle or absorb moisture.

Quick Checks

  • Check storage temp/RH and UV exposure.
  • Compare fresh vs 30-day transfer.

Step-by-Step Fix

  1. Store sealed at 68–75°F, 40–55% RH, dark — Preserves adhesive

Acceptance Criteria
  • No lift after 2 wash tests at 30 days
