You can experiment with patterns or attempt to hone a design that you had intended from the start. Choose the type of stencil material you want to use. There are a variety of materials that are suitable as stencils, but you need to consider how much use the stencil will have one time or many?
Cardboard or foam board are good for large, simple stencils on flat surfaces. Paper works for a single-use stencil on either flat or rounded surfaces. Poster board holds up better than paper and can be used on flat or slightly rounded surfaces. Plastic or clear acetate are good if creating reusable stencils for either flat or rounded surfaces. Frisket film, which is a clear film with a slightly sticky backing, is good for flat and rounded surfaces.
Part 2. Create the final image with clean lines and good contrast. The image must be clear in order to make it easy to cut out. Remember that you need to define the edges and the details of your image, or the stencil will not portray your original drawing.
If you are using a photograph or an online image, you need to use a software program that can adjust the contrast and brightness of your image so that you have defined dark and light areas.
It will probably be easiest to switch the image into purely black and white. Make sure that your current design will work as a stencil. If you are attempting to create a complex image with textures or shadows, make sure that you design does not force you to cut whole sections out of the stencil. Alter the image so that the stencil will remain as a single piece. This may be the most time-consuming portion of the process. Print out the final image on a regular piece of computer paper if applicable.
After the image has been printed, it may be a good idea to outline any areas areas in which the contrast remains ill-defined. You must have a clear image to cut out for the stencil. Attach the paper with the stencil image to the stencil material. There are a number of ways in which you can attach the paper: Tape it in place using masking tape or clear adhesive tape.
Make sure to have some tape near the edges, but it may also be useful to stabilize the paper by taping down sections in the middle. Alternately, you can attach it with spray adhesive. Simply spray the stencil material and then carefully place the paper over the top of it. You can also transfer the image to the stencil material using tracing paper.
This will work best if the stencil material is cardboard or poster board. Cut out the areas of your image where you want the paint to appear. Using a sharp utility knife, delicately cut out the unneeded portions of the stencil. If your design will have more than one color, you must create different stencils for each color. Part 3. Attach the stencil to your painting surface. It is absolutely vital that the stencil is lying flat on the surface when you begin to spay the paint. If any portion if elevated, paint can get underneath and make the design unrecognizable.
There are a number of methods that can be employed, including the following: Tape works well for simple stencils. Complex stencils with a great deal of detail may be more difficult to hold in place with tape.
A temporary adhesive sprays are available at craft stores. They are perfect for more detailed stencils because they can help every part stick closely to the surface that is to be painted. If the stencil material is frisket film, simply remove the backing and stick it to the painting surface.
Apply the spray paint. Do not apply the paint so thickly that it pools or puddles. That much paint is likely to get underneath the stencil. Instead, keep the application process fast, and do not concentrate the nozzle on a single point for too long. Remove the stencil and inspect your work. It is common for some paint to get past the edge of the stencil no matter how hard you try , and so you may want to check to see how the design appears. You may want to apply some touch-up paint to areas that are not well covered.
It can be a good idea to try the stencil on a test surface before using it for real. You can get a sense of how the image looks, and you can also see if paint crept in past the edges of the stencil and so secure it more appropriately when you will use it on the intended surface.
