Dad Element Science Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

Dads are super, aren't they? They are there whenever you need them, and sometimes, they are there when you don't want them anywhere near. They often seem to be everywhere all at once. Well, if you want to give your dad something special, to honor him in a fun and unique way we have just the thing. This is particularly awesome for any dad that is a scientist, or even if you are a scientist. It's our Dad Element Science stencil and it is incredibly creative. This stencil design is inspired by the periodic table of the elements because we decided that Dad should be in elemental form. The design is taken straight from the style of the periodic table, with “Da” and “D” as the elements in the periodic table format and the words “The Super Element” written below. This is the best design for creative gift-giving for the sciency dad in your life. You can make awesome stencil art that he can hang in his classroom, his office at college, his lab, or anywhere else he would like. Make a fun greeting card for dad with this unique design. Paint it on his lab coat so he can wear it everyday with pride. Ice it onto a cake with this food-grade stencil. Honestly, there are no limits. All you need is the right type of paint for the material you are painting on, whether that is fabric, canvas, wood, metal, paper, or another surface. And you need the right stencil size. Small for greeting cards, medium for art, and huge if you want to create a big sign for dad to hang in his lab to show the world how much you love him. Available sizes include: 5” x 6” 5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” When you are ready to paint, gather all your supplies, secure the stencil, and paint with all the love and passion you have for your dad. Cleanup is super easy, and your dad will love what you have created for him. And if you want something a little different, you can always check out our other dad stencils, such as our Dad Man Myth Legend stencil.

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.
