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

The hashtag symbol has been around for a long time. It's also known as the pound sign and the number sign and it was found on the traditional telephone keypad. And this symbol is all the rage right now, but for a completely different reason. It represents major movements on Twitter and other social media sites. It helps people find important information on these social media outlets and it makes you stand out when you post something. And now we bring the hashtag to you in our simple but fabulous Hashtag stencil. If you are supporting a movement, you can create great signs and posters with the Hashtag stencil and one of our letter stencils, such as the Cera Letter stencil. You can get creative with handmade birthday party invitations, saying something like “#youareinvited.” You can also make great hashtag street art. You can paint this design on virtually any surface, such as walls, glass, concrete, wood, paper, metal, plastic, canvas, and fabric. You just need the right paint for the medium. You can even stencil it onto a cake with icing because the mylar stencil is 100% food-grade. We laser-cut all our stencils in-house, ensuring the precision of every single stencil we make. This also allows us to make the stencils in a range of sizes. The Hashtag stencil comes 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” The only thing you really need to decide right now is what color you'll use to paint the Hashtag symbol. Once you've figured this out, simply secure the stencil flat to the surface and let your imagination run wild. Who knows what you'll create. Then when you're finished, simply wash the stencil and store it away for future use.

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.
