Best vinyl for a one time stencil

Recommended Posts

I am going to get an order to cut the vinyl for a one time stencil...........any ideas what is the best kind?? I tried a few test ones on the free Avery transparent I'll find out tomorrow how well it works.  It's being placed on another vinyl canopy just for the stenciling.  Geez hope this made sense!  ;D

Thanks

Jenny

They make stencil vinyl specifically for that purpose. It can be found at Fellers of SignWarehouse. Other than that I would use whatever you have.

Thanks Jay, I appreciate it.  One other thing....is it harder to cut thru??

I have some and it cuts the same. I think the main difference is the adhesive. It is not as strong so it comes off and it shouldn't peel or bubble when being painted. I made some stencils for a friend out of regular vinyl. When he used them with an oil based stain the vinyl started to lift. The stencil vinyl is made for this application.

Thanks I think I'm going to order a smaller roll to give it a try.  Thanks for your advice and suggestions.
