Custom Made Stencils for
Lettering F.A.Q.'s
Will my stencil come in one piece or several pieces?
The majority of our custom lettering and custom resizing
stencils come as one sheet. However, lettering size and length of
words determines if the stencil needs to be split onto separate sheets.
Separate sheets often make larger scale projects easier to handle.
For example, trying to manage a six-foot sheet of material is more
cumbersome than using two three-foot sheets (while maneuvering on
walls, ladders, etc.) If a word, saying or design needs to be split
into separate sheets, we always include dash or register marks (on
the film) so you know exactly where to place the next sheet.
Are
reusable stencils better than vinyl one-time use stencils?
Yes, for a couple of reasons. First, vinyl stencils with a sticky
backing often tear during application and cannot be repaired. Second,
if you are not happy with the placement of the stencil once it is
applied to your surface, you cannot peel it off and stick it someplace
else. Reusable Stencil Matte™ stencils can be applied again
and again on the surface. Third, there are several steps required
to actually apply the vinyl properly to a wall or other surface.
It has to be placed on the wall and smoothed out, a backing will
need to be removed carefully and individual elements may need to
be removed with tweezers after paint application.
Stencil Matte™ stencils are simple and easy-to-use. We do
recommend a can of our special Stencil Adhesive Spray for almost
all applications.
How long will it take to get my custom order?

stencils are laser-cut and shipped within 7 - 10 business days (within
24 hours if you choose to pay $45.00 for expedited production -
