Football Helmet Stencil

Football Helmet Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

Football is the great American pastime, right? Football season is serious business. And the Super Bowl? Well, that's just sacred. It's a time for family and friends to gather together, feast, and cheer on their favorite team. And now, we have a great way to celebrate your love of football the DIY way – with our Football Helmet stencil. The Football Helmet template is the perfect depiction of a football helmet just waiting to be painted anywhere you want. You can create party invitations to your Super Bowl festivities. You can create signs congratulating your son for getting accepted for his college football team. Just paint the helmet, then paint his number on the side of it. Of course, you can also create a series of stencil art, painting helmets with different team colors, to sell at craft shows. And if you combine the football stencil with something like our Fall Family Football stencil, you'll have a completely unique design. The key to success when using our Football Helmet stencil is to use the right paint for the medium whether you are painting on paper, fabric, wood, metal, plastic, or another surface. You can even ice a cake with this stencil because it is food-grade quality. Just be sure to choose the right size for your project. Available stencil 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, just secure the stencil flat to the surface and have at it. You will be left with a perfect football helmet image and an easy cleanup. Simply wash the stencil in warm, soapy water and tuck it away until next football season, or at least until someone asks to borrow it.

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.
