Hanging Tips
A stencil record is easy to hang on the wall from the hole in its centre. It is recommend to use a dark coloured nail as it will be less visible against the artwork. Angle the nail slightly upwards, this will drop the record flush with the wall. That’s it!
Do not fix these records on doors as they are likely to end up on the floor. Do not hang them near any heat source (radiators, chimney). Vinyl is quite resistant, but heat will cause them to warp. If you need to remove dust from the record, simply use a soft dry cloth. Do not use any cleaning products !!!
PIMPIN' A REKKID
The artwork is usually composed digitally and it then gets cleaned up and prepped to be cut out on large A3 panels of cardboard paper. There are often many layers to a stencil piece like these.
The stencil sheets are placed over the records on a custom built spinning calibration rig. This allows for each layer to be aligned to the previous layers of paint. There are 2 rigs side by side, so more pieces of art can be created at the same time from the same stencils, using different colours combinations.
