Ghost Stencil

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

Ghosts are truly shrouded in mystery. Often a symbol of Halloween, some people believe they truly exist and others don't. There are hundreds of ghost stories out there and some have been used in books and TV shows to entertain and frighten us. Well, ghosts may of may not be real, but we certainly bring them alive with our Ghost stencil. The Ghost design shows the detailed and delicate traditional ghost outline. However, the look on the ghost's face is scared, rather than scary. Maybe something worse than it scared it silly! Either way, ghost stencils are ideal for use when decorating for Halloween or when decorating for a scary party or dance or the set for a play. You can make signs and posters that advertise an event, you can use it on the window of a Halloween store, or you can use smaller versions of this stencil to make Halloween party invitations. You can even customize your creation by combining the Ghost with any of our other Halloween designs, such as the Happy Halloween Wicked stencil. 5” x 6” 8.5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” Choose a color for your ghost that really makes it stand out and get noticed. You can even use glow-in-the-dark paint for an extra creepy effect. Make sure the paint is right for the medium, whether you are painting on paper, glass, wood, metal, plastic, canvas, or another material. When you are ready to paint, secure the stencil in place and create your Halloween magic. Then wash the stencil well and tuck it away so you can use it again next Halloween for more ghostly DIY projects.

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.
