Basketball Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

Can you sink a shot? Perhaps you have a basketball fan or player in your household or you love the sport yourself. No matter how basketball has touched your life, you can express your love for it in a whole new way with our fabulous Basketball stencil. This stencil can't be mistaken for anything other than a basketball, with its obvious curving lines shouting out what sport this ball belongs to. There is so much you can do with the Basketball template! If you are decorating your child's room in a sports theme, you can stencil the Basketball design on the wall or on furniture in the room. If basketball is the central them, then stencil a large design on the wall. Or you can combine the Basketball design without other sports stencils, such as the Volley Ball stencil, to create a border around a room or decorate chairs or dresser drawers. Other ideas include wood or metal art or signs and posters to advertise a basketball event or to help cheer on your favorite team. You can even decorate a cake with this stencil because we use food-grade mylar. This versatility is possible because you can paint the Basketball stencil onto any surface, provided you use the right paint. Plus, we offer this stencil in a range of sizes to suit your needs. These sizes include the following: 6” x 6” 8” x 8” 12” x 12” 15” x 15” 20” x 20” 25” x 25” 30” x 30” 35” x 35” When you are ready to use the Basketball stencil, simply secure it to the surface and make sure it's flat. Then all you need to do is paint. When you're finished, don't throw it away! Our Basketball stencils is 100% reusable, which means you can clean it and tuck it away until the next time the urge to stencil hits you.

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.
