Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do your stencils meet Department of Transportation (DOT) and FAA regulations?

A: 

Yes, our standardized stencils comply with all necessary regulations set by the Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). We ensure that our stencils meet industry standards for roadways, parking lots, airports, and other regulated environments. If you have specific requirements, we can create custom stencils tailored to your regulatory needs.

Q: What materials do you use for your stencils?

A: 

We offer stencils made from high-quality LDPE (.100” & .060”), UHMW, aluminum, and mylar. Our .100” LDPE material is known for its durability and resistance to paints and solvents. Whether you're looking for a lightweight, flexible option like mylar or a more robust, heavy-duty choice like aluminum, we ensure our stencils can stand up to repeated use in any environment.

Q: How long does it take to receive my custom stencil?

A: 

Turnaround time for custom stencils typically depends on the complexity of the design and the quantity ordered. Most orders are completed and shipped within 24 business hours. For larger or more intricate projects, the timeline may extend slightly. We always strive to deliver your stencils as quickly as possible without compromising quality. If you need it overnight, we’re happy to make it happen!

Q: Can I order large custom stencils for big projects like parking lots or runways?
