ProTex Textured Heat Press Sheet – How It Elevates Your Prints

by Md Abdur Rahman

Every great DTF print deserves a perfect finish. That’s where the ProTex Textured Heat Press Sheet from Axo Transfers comes in. Designed for professional heat press users, the ProTex sheet enhances the texture, durability, and overall appearance of your prints — giving your apparel that clean, premium, retail-ready look.

Whether you’re pressing DTF transfers, sublimation prints, HTV vinyl, or screen print transfers, ProTex delivers a consistent matte texture, prevents heat damage, and ensures your designs look their absolute best.

💎 What Is the ProTex Textured Heat Press Sheet?

The ProTex Heat Press Sheet is a reusable, high-temperature pressing accessory designed to sit between your transfer and the press platen. Made from heat-resistant, non-stick material, it protects your design while enhancing the surface finish for smoother, more professional results.

Unlike traditional Teflon sheets, ProTex features a fine, textured surface that prevents glossing, ink smudging, or fabric shine — ensuring your DTF prints look soft, detailed, and perfectly pressed every time.

⚙️ Why You Need the ProTex Sheet for DTF Printing

✅ 1. Protects Your Prints from Heat Damage

ProTex shields your garments and transfers from excessive heat, preventing scorching, sticking, or melted residue. It acts as a barrier that evenly distributes pressure across the surface for consistent prints.

✅ 2. Enhances Texture and Finish

The textured surface creates a matte, professional finish — eliminating the shiny look that can occur after pressing. Your garments look smoother and more natural, ideal for retail-quality apparel.

✅ 3. Improves Adhesion and Longevity

ProTex helps the DTF adhesive bond more evenly to the fabric, improving the wash durability and stretch performance of your prints. The result is a stronger, longer-lasting transfer.

✅ 4. Reusable and Easy to Clean

Built to last for hundreds of uses, this sheet wipes clean easily with a soft cloth. It’s resistant to ink buildup and won’t warp under pressure or high temperatures.

✅ 5. Compatible with All Heat Presses

Whether you use a swing-away, clamshell, or automatic press, ProTex works with every setup — perfect for DTF, HTV, sublimation, and screen transfers alike.

🧤 How to Use the ProTex Textured Heat Press Sheet

Using the ProTex sheet is simple and effective for every print type:

  1. Place your DTF transfer on the garment and press as normal.

  2. Peel the film (hot or cold depending on your DTF film type).

  3. Lay the ProTex sheet over your design.

  4. Repress for 5–10 seconds at 300°F (150°C) using firm pressure.

  5. Remove the sheet to reveal a beautifully smooth, matte finish.

You’ll instantly see a difference — your prints feel softer, look cleaner, and have a professional-grade texture that stands out.
