This stencil design is an exact match for the prestigious Arrow of Light Award merit badge that is available to Cub Scouts that go above and beyond. This truly is the highest honor a Cub Scout can receive. If you are a parent of a Cub Scout, then maybe stenciling this onto a t-shirt or a congratulations card would be ideal. Or you can stencil it right onto a celebratory cake because the durable mylar is food-grade quality. As a leader, you can make posters or signs to help advertise a special awards ceremony or just to post around the Scout den to remind the Scouts what they are working toward. Regardless of how you choose to use the Arrow Of Light stencil, we laser-cut it in a range of sizes, including: 5” x 6” 8.5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” You can choose the traditional yellow for the paint or you can choose a color that is meaningful to you and your Cub Scout. Just be sure the paint is right for the surface material, whether that is a wall, paper, glass, fabric, wood, metal, or plastic. Then all you need to do is secure the stencil and paint. Afterward, simply wash the stencil and store it away. The best thing is this Arrow Of Light stencil is completely reusable, which is particularly ideal for Scout leaders who may want to use the stencil year-after-year. You can even get the Scouts in on the fun by getting them to do their own stencil art.

Here are some advantages of using Mylar stencil material:

  • FLEXIBLE: Mylar can wrap around cylinders and uneven or irregular surfaces, and can be rolled for shipping and storage.
  • EASY TO CLEAN: Our Mylar is solvent proof, so cleaning up paint or ink is quick and simple.
  • REUSABLE: Our stencils are built to withstand normal painting wear and tear, and keeping your stencil template clean is the best way to ensure a longer life.
  • DURABLE: Mylar sheets are reputably the strongest type of stencil material, and maintains durability without compromising the pliable structure.

7.5 MIL MYLAR STENCIL MATERIAL

  • Medium Weight. Feels as thick as card stock
  • 7.5 Mil (0.19 mm) thickness
  • Very flexible for tight curves and cylinder shapes
  • Recommended for fine detailed craft stencils and smaller stencils
  • Reusable as long as they are kept clean and well maintained

WHY DO WE RECOMMEND MYLAR?

As mentioned before, the best way to achieve a perfectly painted stencil with a very nice paint edge is to use a stencil material that is as thin as possible for your project. At the same time, you also want a material that wont absorb paint or any liquid because this will cause the stencil to deteriorate. A stencil made from paper, cardstock or paperboard will become saturated with paint or ink rather quickly, and this causes a crusty, uneven edge that can never be removed.

Another option for stencils, and one that quickly comes to mind when we discuss durability, is metal stencils. While these thick, unbendable stencils do have their place for some industrial applications where paint overspray and running doesnt quite matter as much, they can be very expensive and heavy to ship.

There are some other plastics that are used for stencil manufacturing, but these are typically cut with a die cutter so there is a limited amount of detail that can be achieved. And because this older, traditional process takes so much work and expense to set up for each stencil design, the minimum are often in the 1000s.
