FAQ: Heat Transfer Press Accessories & Platens

Why should I use a Teflon platen cover?

A Teflon Top Heater Wrap or Bottom Table Wrap serves two main purposes: it protects your heat platen from ink and adhesive buildup, and it allows garments to slide on and off the press easily. This reduces friction and prevents the "scorching" often seen when fabric comes into direct contact with the heating element for too long.

What is the best accessory for printing on zippers or buttons?

To print near thick seams, zippers, or buttons without losing pressure, we recommend Hotronix Print Perfect Pads or Foam Cover Pads. These accessories elevate the print area, allowing the bulky parts of the garment to sink into the padding so the heat platen can make firm, even contact with the transfer.

Can I change the platens on my Hotronix press?

Yes. We carry a wide variety of Hotronix Heat Press Shirt Platens and Cap Platens that utilize a "Quick Change" system. This allows you to switch from a standard 16" x 20" platen to a Sleeve/Leg Platen or a Shoe Platen in seconds, significantly increasing your shop's versatility.

How do I ensure perfectly straight logo placement?

The Hotronix Heat Press Laser Alignment System is the industry standard for precision. It projects laser lines onto your lower platen, allowing you to align transfers consistently across an entire production run, reducing garment spoilage and improving quality control.
