Skull and Crossbones Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

The skull and crossbones symbol is a sign of pirates, a sign of poison, and a symbol of death to us. This is especially relevant at Halloween and when festivals of the dead are happening in cultures around the world. We have created a unique and wonderful Skull And Crossbones stencil that we know will help you take your Halloween decorating and celebrations up a notch. The Skull And Crossbones design doesn't quite look like the traditional pirate's Jolly Roger, but could still substitute for it if you want. The skull doesn't have its jaw and there is a lightning bolt shape on the top that looks quite fitting and adds to the creepiness of the image. So, create signs and posters that advertise a Halloween event. Create invitations to a Halloween party. Create a huge Halloween mural you can put up for the big night. The Skull And Crossbones stencil can be painted on any surface, provided you have the right paint for the medium. This includes surface materials such as walls, glass, paper, wood, metal, plastic, canvas, and fabric. You can even use this food-grade stencil to decorate a cake. And because we offer the Skull And Cross Bones template in a range of sizes, you will easily be able to find the size you need. 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” So, get your stencil and choose your paint color. Glow-in-the-dark is perfect for this. Pair this stencil with any of our other Halloween stencils, such as the Skeleton Hand stencil. Then secure the stencil and paint. When you're done, cleanup is as simple as washing the stencil and tucking it away until next Halloween.

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.
