A teflon sheet has many different uses. The main use, however, is for protection when transferring an opaque heat transfer image onto a dark garment. When it is placed between the image and the platen, it helps prevent the ink from your transfer from ending up on your heat press.Follow the instructions for your heat transfer paper for application.
Teflon sheets can also be used for protection of the bottom heat platen during sublimation or anytime there may be a need for bleed around your image which would then require some type of protection and can help prevent the ghosting effect often created by the paper sliding across the shirt during the lifting of the platen. It is used as a weight, keeping the transfer paper in place.
