Nowadays everyone strives to surround themselves with exclusive and interesting things. This can be done in several ways. For example, you can paint your home by hand, choosing the colors you like and how to apply them.
By purchasing ready-made wall stencils, you can quickly diversify boring and boring interiors. At the same time, you can quickly and with a high degree of accuracy draw each, even the smallest, element of your chosen drawing. These can be exquisite French Provence motifs or minimalistic Japanese-style images.
In addition, probably, every motorist knows airbrushing, in which stencils are also used for drawing. Especially often doors, fenders, hood or trunk of a car are exposed to this procedure. Recently, painting of side mirrors, roofs, and car bumpers has become widespread.
Stencil production is traditionally made from PVC film or special plastic, on the surface of which, using a special plotterthe required shapes, inscriptions and drawings are cut out. Depending on the type of material used, there are models for single use and reusable use.
Reusable templates are designed for pipeline work. Using a disposable stencil is most effective when you need to apply a small design quickly.
The production of a stencil also directly depends on its further purpose. There are reference and temporary stencils, as well as patterns.
So, for example, temporary templates are widely used in cases where it is necessary to draw a clear contour line in some part of the drawing. This affects the material from which it is made. Most often, PVC film acts as such a material.
In turn, the manufacture of a reference type stencil is made from paper, since such models are designed to transfer the image to the required surface while observing the proportions of the object. In addition, such templates are necessary to create smooth circles or straight lines with increased contour accuracy. Please note that this method allows you to most accurately copy a font or pattern without changing its proportions.
Patterns are made of special plastic, which is designed for continuous repeated use. However, do not forget that patterns, excellent in their properties and characteristics, can also be made from a film used in typographic printing.
You can make a stencil at home with your own hands. Consider the simplest paper template. First you need to draw or print the required drawing, and then transfer it to cardboard. This will strengthen the stencil, as well as avoid "spreading" of the image. Next, you should cut the model along the resulting contour. For this, it is best to use scissors and special sharp knives.
