MIlitary Star Stencil

MIlitary Star Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

The military star enclosed in a broken circle has long been painted on the side or hood of military vehicles. Also known as the Invasion Star, this is a symbol of pride for the American military and now you can express that very same pride with our Military Star stencil. The Military Star stencil depicts a perfect military star that you can use to decorate anything or to create amazing art. Stencil it onto your own Jeep as a source of military pride. Or stencil it onto a wall in your home, maybe in a spot that is dedicated to your military career, or on the window of a military supply store. You can also create fabulous Military Star art to give as a gift to a military person in your life or to sell at craft shows. There really are no limits to what you can do with the Military Star stencil. As long as you have the right paint for the medium, you can paint it anywhere you like, including glass, walls, concrete, wood, metal, plastic, and fabric. You can even decorate a cake with it because the stencil is 100% food-grade quality. Plus, our Military Star stencil comes in the following sizes: 6” x 6” 8” x 8” 12” x 12” 15” x 15” 20” x 20” 25” x 25” 30” x 30” 35” x 35” And if you can't find the size you are looking for, we make custom orders because we laser-cut all our stencils in-house. Once you receive your stencil, painting is so easy. Just secure the stencil flat to the surface and apply the paint with a spray, brush, or roller. Then remove the stencil and voila! You have a professional-looking design. You can even combine the Military Star stencil with any of our other military stencils, such as the Betsy Ross Stars stencil, for a totally unique design. And since all our mylar stencils are durable and fully reusable, you can wash the Military Star stencil and tuck it away until you or someone you know needs it 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.
