dont use rotation to "flip" it. if the texture becomes inverted at a certain axis, use the Scale parameter and negativ-ise it. for example, if the texture is flipped at the X-axis and your texture scale is:

Scale X: 1m
Scale Y: 1m
Scale Z: 1m

change it to:

Scale X: -1m
ScaleY: 1m
ScaleZ: 1m

same applies for the other axes.
