How fast can I get supplies in Iowa?

Storing DTF powder & film in Iowa's climate
Morning humidity averages 81% and afternoon humidity 60% at NOAA's Des Moines station (the reference we use for Iowa). That's humid air. Higher humidity means more moisture pickup by hot-melt powder and PET film, so keep powder sealed with desiccant and film bagged.
For a target humidity number, use the CobraFlex or DuPont tech sheet for your product. Data: NOAA NCEI Comparative Climatic Data.
