We currently offer them in 6", 8", 12", and 16". The grout line is <strong>NOT</strong> factored into those sizes. Before ordering, please measure your tile from <strong>tile edge to tile edge. </strong>Do <strong>NOT </strong>include the grout lines. If your tile is slightly larger/smaller than our listed dimensions, please contact customer service using <a title="Contact form" href="https://www.cuttingedgestencils.com/pages/contact-cutting-edge-stencils" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Contact form.</a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">We also include a <strong>free Grout Line stencil</strong> to give your stenciled lines a sharp, clean look!</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong>About registration marks:</strong> you can use them to align your tile stencil repeats, or not! It really depends on what surface you're stenciling. When stenciling over an existing old tile, the registration marks might not be helpful as the grout width varies from floor to floor. In this case, simply mask out the registration marks with pieces of blue tape, and align the stencil by eye by centering it on each old tile. If you are stenciling over a wall, or linoleum/cement floor - please use registration marks for easy alighnment of your tile stencil. Please see our alignment pic for reference.</p> <p class="p1">Stenciling on rough or textured surfaces may contribute to increased paint bleed. For more information on stenciling on textured walls, see our <a href="https://www.cuttingedgestencils.com/pages/wall-stencil-cutting-edge-stencils-faq#161">F.A.Q.</a> section.</p> <div>We recommend purchasing 2 tile stencils for your project. Not only it will go faster, but you'll be able to get into tighter places and corners by cutting your spare tile stencil. You can certainly bend your stencil and still get to all the tight spots, but you know what we're sayin' - having 2 stencils makes your life much easier! :)<br> <div> </div> <div>To stencil over existing floor tiles, first thoroughly wash your floor, let it dry, then give it a coat of adhesive primer (Stix is best in our experience), after that apply a base coat color (regular wall latex paint will do). Then, stencil your floor in acrylic or latex paint and finally seal it with two coats of water-based polyurethane for durability.</div> <div> </div> <div>How durable your newly stenciled floor will be? Very durable! In our experience the stenciled finish will last for years. We hear the same positive feedback from our customers about their durable stenciled tile floors. Just make sure to use the proper primer! <div class="descText"> <br> <div> <div>For expert stenciling tips, please watch our <strong><a href="https://www.cuttingedgestencils.com/pages/how-to-stencil-videos">How-to stencil videos</a>!</strong> You'll find them extremely helpful for your stenciling project. Even beginners get great results!</div> </div> </div> <div> <p>Although most of <a href="https://www.cuttingedgestencils.com/">our stencils</a> do not require the use of <strong>spray adhesive</strong>, if your surface has a texture to it, it might be a good idea to use spray adhesive to help minimize paint seepage (Elmer's spray adhesive seems to be the best). Make sure you shake the can well and lightly mist (not drench) the stencil, and let it dry for a moment before positioning it on the surface you're about to stencil. This step will prevent the adhesive residue transferring to the wall. You'll need to re-mist the stencil after a few repeats. <strong>Note:</strong> you will still need to hold the stencil in place with a few pieces of blue painters tape! Adhesive by itself is not enough to hold the stencil on the wall. </p> <p><strong>Clean-up tip: </strong>Spray the stencil with Simple Green to help to remove adhesive residue and let it sit for a while before cleaning with soap and water. Please note that it is virtually impossible to get rid of all adhesive residue. That's why we personally prefer not to use it and just stick with painter's tape!</p> <p><strong>About seepage and imperfections:</strong> Even with a proper loaded roller and correct technique you might get some minor paint seepage here and there. In most cases it's not noticeable, especially from a couple of feet away and it can be easily touched up with a small brush. Don't forget that you're creating a "hand-painted wall finish". A few imperfections and some paint seepage here and there are natural and inevitable for this type of work. To avoid seepage, use spray adhesive and less paint on your roller and brush.</p> <p><a href="https://www.cuttingedgestencils.com/collections/wall-stencils">Our stencils</a> are made to the highest industry standards and with proper care and storage will serve you for long time.</p> </div> </div> </div> <p> </p>

Stencil aligns easily vertically and horizontally for a seamless wallpaper effect by slightly overlapping and locking in with previously painted parts.

The possible paint bleed is barely noticeable with this pattern. But if you want to minimize paint seepage or are using high contrasting colors, spray adhesive is very helpful (Elmer's spray adhesive seems to be the best). Make sure you shake the can well and lightly mist (not drench) the stencil, and let it dry for a moment before positioning it on the wall. This step will prevent the adhesive residue transferring to the wall. You'll need to re-mist the stencil after a few repeats.
