This is a thermal transfer sheet in extended format, designed for large stencils — projects on the forearm, shin, or elongated pieces that don't fit on a regular sheet. With dimensions of 21.6 × 40.64 cm (8.5" × 16"), it offers more working space than the Long variant in the same Spirit range. It is compatible with all thermal stencil printers, but can also be used manually, by tracing with pressure. The displayed price is for a single sheet.
Does it work on any stencil printer?▾
Yes, the sheet is compatible with all thermal stencil printers. However, note that it is a thermal sheet, so it should not be used in regular office printers (inkjet or laser) — those work on a different principle and can damage both the sheet and the device. Also check if your printer supports formats longer than standard A4, given the length of 40.64 cm.
What is the difference compared to the Long sheet or a standard one?▾
The difference is the format: the Extra Long variant measures 21.6 × 40.64 cm (8.5" × 16"), so it is longer than the Long variant in the same range. The width remains standard, but the extra length allows you to transfer large designs — for example vertical pieces on the forearm or shin — in one piece, without having to join two stencils.
Can I use it if I don't have a thermal printer?▾
Yes, the sheet can also be used manually: place the design on top and trace the lines with firm pressure, and the ink transfers onto the stencil sheet. The result depends on your hand — lines drawn firmly and consistently come out clear, while hesitant lines may appear broken. For high workload, the thermal printer remains the faster and more consistent option.
Can I reuse a sheet if the stencil didn't turn out well or there is ink left on it?▾
No. Once the sheet has been run through the printer or used for a transfer, it is discarded. If the stencil applied to the skin turned out poorly, wipe it off the skin with a suitable solution and print a new stencil on a new sheet. For hygiene reasons, a sheet is never used for more than one client.
How many sheets do I receive per order?▾
The displayed price is for a single sheet (1 piece). If you need more, add the desired quantity to the cart. This extended format is usually bought on an as-needed basis for large projects, while for everyday work many artists also keep regular format sheets.
Is it suitable for vegan clients or those with special requirements?▾
Yes, the sheet is Vegan-certified according to the manufacturer and is indicated as safe for skin. It is manufactured in the United States by Spirit, a manufacturer active in the field since 1948, which tests its products with every production batch.
