School Bus Stencil

School Bus Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

Is it a big yellow monster that gobbles up the children each morning, or the blessed saviour that comes and takes the kids for the day so you can have some peace and quiet? Whatever way you think of the school bus, you probably have fond school bus memories of your own. Remember wanting to sit all the way in the back where the ride was bouncier? Remember picking your feet up off the floor of the bus when you went over railway tracks? Those were some fun times. And now you can relive them in your DIY art and decor with our super School Bus stencil. The School Bus stencil shows the front of a school bus, with the words “SCHOOL BUS” written across the top of the bus. You can see the side-view mirrors, the headlights, and wheels on the bus that go round and round. And you can have a lot of fun painting this design wherever you want. All you need is the right paint for the medium you have chosen, and the right stencil size and you can do anything. Available sizes include: 6” x 6” 8” x 8” 12” x 12” 15” x 15” 20” x 20” 25” x 25” 30” x 30” 35” x 35” The question is what will you do with the School Bus stencil? Paint nice signs showing the kids in your neighborhood where the school bus stops? Paint it on invitations to make the first day taking the bus special for the neighborhood kids? Have a school bus-themed party? It doesn't matter what you want to do, you can make it happen. All you need are your stencil and your paint in your chosen color. Then you secure the stencil to the surface and paint using a spray, roller, or brush. You will have a masterpiece in just a few minutes. Then you will be able to clean the stencil and pass it along to another parent, a school bus driver you know, or a teacher. Or you can keep it so you can use it again. The mylar material is very durable and will last for years.

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.
