The design is cut as a half-arch shape. You can use it as is, and only stencil a half arch on your wall, or you can flip it and stencil the mirror image for a full arch. Depending on the color and paint you used, the stencil might require cleaning before flipping. Always do a small test in discreet area for flipping the stencil that has dry paint on it, to make sure it doesn't come off while you're painting. Also you can purchase 2 stencils for a full arch and then you don't have to flip it and worry about cleaning. Most of our stencils do not require the use of spray adhesive, however this crisp wall pattern can definitely benefit from it. 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. Note: 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. Clean-up tip: Spray the stencil with Simple Green to help to remove adhesive residue. Stenciling on rough or textured walls may contribute to increased paint bleed. For more information on stenciling on textured walls, see our F.A.Q. section. Our Blog "Stencil Stories" is packed full of illustrated tutorials and inspiration!

Try this stencil with our new Clip-on Stencil Level, (sold separately) and discover how easy it is to achieve perfectly level results without dealing with all those bulky heavy bubble levels and annoying laser levels. We cannot recommend the Level enough, it's a real time-saver and is so handy! The stencil is made out of durable plastic stencil material. This material is strong but flexible, reusable and easy to clean. We love it so much more than standard 5-8 mil Mylar! It's not brittle, user friendly and just so easy to work with.

Our customers love it too, and we are sure that you'll notice the difference! Our stencils will last a long time and are a pleasure to use.
