Item Name: Ant Blasting Stencils SKU: AS-ANTS01 Description: Ant Blasting Stencils are single-use vinyl sandblasting stencils designed for masking glass so you can blast a crisp ant pattern into the surface. Each stencil sheet uses a water based adhesive that is intended to make removal simple by soaking in water until the stencil begins to release. The stencils come with an instructional sheet. The ant design is described as a sharp edged pattern, with multiple sizes of the ant image arranged on the sheet for different scale options in your finished work. The product listing notes there is a three sheet minimum purchase requirement, and you can mix designs to meet that minimum. How it is used: These stencils are used in glass sandblasting and surface decoration when you want clean, repeatable imagery without hand-cutting masks. In practice, you apply the vinyl stencil to clean, dry glass, burnish it down so the edges seal, then blast to the depth and frosting level you want. After blasting, you soak the piece in water to help the water based adhesive release, peel the stencil away, and clean the surface. Having multiple image sizes on one sheet is useful for matching the graphic scale to different blanks such as pendants, ornaments, small panels, or vessel surfaces. Dimensions: Stencil sheet size: 8.5" x 12"Approximate margins: 5/8" bottom and topLarge images: about 1" to 1.5" in height and 3/4" to 1.5" wide
