LoneStar DTF

LoneStar DTF is a San Antonio, Texas-based DTF transfer specialist operating from 5251 Timberhill Drive, Suite 203, San Antonio, TX 78238. The company provides custom direct-to-film (DTF) transfers, UV DTF transfers, sublimation transfers, DTFColorMax transfers, custom stickers, and a range of DTF printing supplies to customers across the United States. LoneStar DTF is operated under the Nuflographix business entity and can be reached by phone at 210-570-7218 or by email at Justin@lsprintco.com.

Custom DTF transfers are the primary service offering from LoneStar DTF. The company prints full-color DTF transfers that customers can apply to garments using a heat press. The recommended application settings vary by fabric type, ranging from 235 degrees Fahrenheit for polyester to 310 degrees Fahrenheit for 100% cotton, with medium to heavy pressure. LoneStar DTF transfers are instant hot peel, meaning there is no waiting for the transfer to cool before peeling. These transfers work on a variety of fabric types and produce vibrant full-color graphics suitable for commercial resale or personal use.

LoneStar DTF provides three distinct methods for customers to create and order gang sheets. The Auto Builder tool generates gang sheet layouts automatically based on uploaded designs, simplifying the process for customers who want maximum efficiency without manual layout work. The Upload option allows customers to submit pre-made gang sheet files with automated pricing based on the sheet dimensions. The Manual Builder provides a drag-and-drop interface for customers who want precise control over the placement and arrangement of individual designs on their gang sheet. Gang sheets are available in sizes starting at 8.5 by 11 inches for 3 dollars, scaling up through multiple dimensions to accommodate different order volumes. This three-option approach accommodates different customer preferences and technical comfort levels.

UV DTF transfers represent a growing segment of the LoneStar DTF product offering. UV DTF technology enables transfers that can be applied to hard surfaces, rigid substrates, and a broader range of materials beyond traditional fabric applications. This makes UV DTF transfers suitable for decorating items like tumblers, phone cases, promotional products, and other non-textile surfaces. LoneStar DTF offers free UV DTF sample packs so customers can test the product quality before placing a full order.

DTFColorMax transfers are an additional transfer technology offered by LoneStar DTF. This product line extends the company's transfer capabilities with enhanced color vibrancy and is available through the same Auto Builder ordering system used for standard DTF and UV DTF transfers.

Sublimation transfers are another product category offered by LoneStar DTF. Sublimation is a heat transfer method that works primarily with polyester fabrics and polymer-coated substrates, producing permanent full-color graphics that become part of the material rather than sitting on top of it. By offering sublimation alongside DTF, UV DTF, and DTFColorMax, LoneStar DTF provides a comprehensive range of transfer technologies that cover virtually any substrate and application requirement a customer might have.

Custom stickers are available through the LoneStar DTF Sticker Studio, an interactive online tool where customers can design and order custom stickers. This service extends the company's product line beyond heat transfers into adhesive-based decoration products.

Halftone design services are a specialized offering from LoneStar DTF, priced at 24.99 dollars per design. Halftone conversion transforms continuous-tone artwork into dot patterns that print more cleanly on DTF transfers, particularly when creating faded or gradient effects on dark garments. This technique is commonly used in vintage-style designs and simulated process printing. Additional design services include embroidery digitization at 24.99 dollars and vector redigitization at 24.99 dollars, expanding the company's capabilities beyond transfer printing into broader garment decoration preparation.

LoneStar DTF sells DTF printing supplies for businesses that operate their own printing equipment. The supply catalog includes DTF transfer film in 13-inch and 24-inch widths (both single-sided and double-sided matte, instant hot peel), low-temperature fine adhesive powder, DTF inks in white, black, cyan, magenta, and yellow (v2 premium line), premium dampers, foam cleaning swabs, and a t-shirt alignment tool set. The company also sells blank apparel, specifically Gildan SoftStyle t-shirts at 3.75 dollars each, making it possible for customers to source both transfers and blanks from a single supplier.

Free sample packs are available for both DTF and UV DTF transfers at no charge, allowing potential customers to evaluate print quality, color vibrancy, and application ease before committing to a paid order.

Same-day printing and shipping is available for orders placed before 3:00 PM Central Standard Time on business days. This fast turnaround is particularly valuable for customers with urgent orders or tight production schedules. The same-day capability is a key differentiator in the DTF transfer market, where many competitors require multi-day production windows before shipping.

Free shipping is offered on orders exceeding 200 dollars, providing an incentive for customers to consolidate their transfer and supply orders. For orders below the free shipping threshold, standard shipping rates apply. The San Antonio, Texas, location provides a central shipping point within the continental United States, allowing for reasonable transit times to customers on both coasts and throughout the central states.

Rush order services are available at 24.99 dollars for customers who need expedited production beyond the standard same-day turnaround. This option provides priority processing for orders that require immediate attention, such as last-minute event merchandise, urgent customer fulfillment, or time-critical promotional materials. The availability of both same-day standard processing and additional rush options gives customers flexibility in managing their production timelines.

LoneStar DTF operates without minimum order requirements, accepting orders of any size from individual transfers to large production runs. This accessibility makes the service viable for a wide range of customers, from individual crafters creating custom pieces to established apparel businesses processing high volumes of transfers for their product lines. The combination of no minimums, same-day shipping capability, multiple transfer technologies, custom stickers, and design services positions LoneStar DTF as a versatile DTF service provider serving the Texas market and beyond.
