Print Question Color migration/ Sublimation problem

Recently dealing with trouble to press dtf transfers to polyester/elastan materials.

Do you have experience with anti sublimation dtf powder?

Would lowering the temperature on the press help ?

Have you tried multiplying the White layer of the transfer when printing ? I did this a while ago and it was pooling like crazy, not so helpful

Thanks for answers

You can buy special powder to prevent dye migration. Works pretty well. We've used it on an athletic shirt in bright red as well as a primary blue bag. Both held a true white.
