<p>It depends on the materials. Kapton is only good for a few
squeegeeings (?) before it dies, but stainless steel should last a
long time. Keep in mind this would be a stencil and not a silk
screen, so thereĀ would be no support in open area to keep the
squeegee from contacting the work in wider open areas of the
stencil. It is so cheap though, as you say, why not give it a try?</p>

<div>With stencils being so cheap from all the usual PCB
supplier, I was thinking today about trying them out for use
as a basic stencil for painting pedal enclosures. Does anyone
have any experience with abusing the stencils?</div>
