Cat Stencil

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

Cats are gorgeous, majestic creatures. Once revered as sacred by the ancient Egyptians, cats today still hold a special place in the hearts of many. And now we bring the cat to you with our incredible cat stencil. In this stencil design, we bring out the playful nature of the cat. The cat is shown on its hind legs, reaching up with its front paws in a playful gesture. You could even see this as the cat reaching up and pawing her human. If you love cats, this stencil design would be ideal as a wall border or to decorate wood furniture. You could create signs or posters advertising a cat adoption day or you could create wonderful art with this stencil of cat. If you combine our Cat stencils with our Ankh stencil, you can achieve a very Egyptian feel to your creation. Our cat is incredibly versatile. This is in part due to the fact that you can paint it on just about any surface, provided you are using the right paint for the medium. Paint it on walls, glass, canvas, fabric, metal, wood, or plastic. You can even paint it on a cake with icing because the mylar stencil is 100% food-grade. Add that to the range of available sizes, and you have a winning combination. Sizes include: 6” x 6” 8” x 8” 12” x 12” 15” x 15” 20” x 20” 25” x 25” 30” x 30” 35” x 35” You can have a black cat, a white cat, a grey cat, or even a ginger cat. Just choose your paint color and secure the stencil and you can create your art. Then, wash this reusable stencil and store it away until the next time you or someone you know wants to create cat 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.

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.
