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

Dragonflies are such curious and interesting creatures. We see them flying around on a hot summer day, their iridescent bodies gleaming in the sun. Sometimes, if you're lucky, one will land on you and bring a little extra magic into your life. But if you want that magic all the time, then you need our Dragonfly stencil. This stencil is incredibly beautiful and detailed. You can see the bulging eyes on the head of the dragonfly, the intricate veins in its wings, and the slender body. This Dragonfly stencil would be fun to paint and to color in eye-popping detail. However, you choose to color it, you can use this fun stencil in a variety of ways. If you are painting a child's room, you can stencil this on the wall with other animal stencils or make it the main attraction by painting it in a larger size. You can also stencil it on furniture, such as a bench in your garden. Stencil it onto a t-shirt, a window, or onto metal or wood art. You can even make gorgeous greeting cards with this dragonfly stencil. We make this level of versatility possible by offering the Dragonfly stencil in the following sizes: 5” x 6” 8.5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” So, go ahead and get creative the dragonfly way. Combine this stencil with others to create a totally unique design. Using the stencil is so easy. Just make sure you have the right paint for the material, secure the stencil flat to the surface, and carefully paint. The image will be crisp and clear. And don't worry about cleanup. Just wash the stencil and store it away. Since it's reusable, you or your friends can use it again and again.

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.
