Where to get stencils?

[jackdaw]

I finally think I understand, using stencils to paint the darts on the front of bikes, where do you get stencils? Come on. Did I say something wrong?

I saw a bunch of old resto stencils on ebay.

You could design/cut your own from blue painters tape.

Most of the stencils on eBay are for Schwinn

I've used this set before, excellent quality and he throws in some 'extras' to practice on.

Also, I think there's a couple of guys on here that make them too.

Good luck!

I make 'em. I own and operate a sign shop. I have several sets I designed already. I cut them from 3M paint mask as to leave a superior finish.

I used to make them but I can't find a local place that sells the mask material. I have to buy it over the net and that adds a lot to the price.

personally i like to measure and then tape them myself. with stencils youll still have to measure(if you want them to be even) so i cut out the middleman.

Thanks folks, I think I am going to make my own from blue tape. I appreciate the help.
