The clubs stencil for the Americas is on its way to me and I should have it Friday of this week.
I looked through several strings to find out who else in the Americas wants it and I came up with this list (with request date).
StevenF - 4/15/16
Beachbear - 7/4/16
x046866x - 9/27/17
johnk - 10/30/17
scoot - 12/1/17

I can send it to anyone that needs it quickly and is ready for it, but then I would request it is sent right back to me as I will probably be ready by then.
I'm going to follow this list (requests were made in several different posts, so it is hard to follow), unless anyone has corrections for me.
I made this new string for Stencils for the Americas only to try to make this process more straightforward.
I'll be putting a link to this string in the other strings on the same subject.

I've received the stencils, two rubber/silicone pieces and a hard plastic one.
You will be kept posted.

Excellent thanks Mark! I'm not going to need mine until mid spring. I will keep you posted as I get closer.

Thanks,

Sure, I won't be maintaining the list, but I've cleaned it up and have made it current.
So, this is the list as best as I could figure out from looking at the string on the subject and "talking" to members.
1. johnk (John) - in transit to John.
2. scoot (Scott) - 12/1/17
3. mnahon (Meyer) - 4/22/18

I will appreciate being added to the list of full member recipients of a soft stencil for the 230-250 style hubcap stencil. It’s not clear to me who retains the list or how to get added. A little help from my friends will be appreciated.

Iconic · « **Reply #9 on:** February 05, 2019, 14:40:45 »

Tom,
Just read this string from the beginning.
I'll bet you can figure it out.
Good luck,
Mark

johnk · « **Reply #10 on:** February 06, 2019, 03:20:18 »

I still have butnwill be done shortly. I followed up with Scoot and Meyer and they are no longer in need of the stencils. I will put Tom on the list but I wanted to check the other posts as I thougth there was someone else who asked for it recently.

Received my new hub caps from the Classic center last week. Beautiful.

rbouch8828 · « **Reply #11 on:** July 12, 2019, 18:01:29 »

I need the stencil to do the hubcaps on my 280SL.

Not sure where it is at the moment?

I am in Framingham, MA

johnk · « **Reply #12 on:** August 10, 2019, 13:19:10 »

Sorry for the late reply. I sent it to eschroder back in April.

russelljones48 · « **Reply #13 on:** August 23, 2019, 12:23:28 »

if the stencil is not in use, I'd like to be next. my hubcaps are ready for paint.

Is the stencil available? I'd like to be next on the list.

russelljones48 · « **Reply #15 on:** December 12, 2019, 13:50:00 »

my bad.... I have the stencils and if you're up this way (Mooresville) you can pick them up or I can ship them. Sorry to have missed this but the holidays and some emergency travel have kept me off the boards.

TJMart · « **Reply #16 on:** December 15, 2019, 20:26:18 »

RJ,

Thanks for your response. Would it be possible for you to ship it. I won't be up that way is the near future. You can ship after the Holiday as I won't need it that soon. PM me and I'll send my address.

Thanks

Tony

Hey there,
Do you still have the hubcap stencil available?
Chris

TJMart · « **Reply #18 on:** March 30, 2020, 15:03:09 »

Hello Chris,

I just picked them up from my painter. I have sent you a PM.

TJMart · « **Reply #19 on:** April 04, 2020, 17:23:06 »

Hello Chris,

Just an update. The stencils were delivered to your painter per your instructions 4/3/20. Good luck!

Chris Long · « **Reply #20 on:** July 27, 2020, 16:17:33 »

Does anyone have the stencil - Could I borrow in NJ. Thanks

Iconic · « **Reply #21 on:** July 27, 2020, 18:22:07 »

Arct1k,
If you read a few posts before this one, you will see that Chris (revrevrev) might have the stencil.
For quicker response, I suggest you PM (personal message) Chris to see the status.
If you PM him, he will get an email right away. Otherwise, it might be a while until he looks at this string.
Good luck ! It works great.
Mark

Are people using the stencil having good results? When I had my caps painted my painter said having just 1 stencil and painting 4 or 5 hubcaps created more problems than it was worth. He said it had to do with the paint being used on my car. If I recall, since I was doing a base coat / clear coat it did not work as well than if he had used a single stage paint.

russelljones48 · « **Reply #23 on:** July 27, 2020, 20:57:47 »

My overall take is that the 2 piece stencil set was more work than reward. I have to redo 1 of my wheels and do a spare. I will use the center stencil and tape the outer rim. I found that it was difficult to get paint into the corners since the outer piece is so thick. Cleaning it is also a PITA so do all 4 at once.. I'll post results on the next 2.

Concerning possible problems with 2 stage paints - have your paint store blend a single stage can for you.. I think that will make it easier and eliminate the second coat. You can also use it to fill chips..

I used the thick green flexible two piece set up. Had no problem at all with the outer ring but getting the paint in the corners on the Star was a real challenge because the stencil is real thick. My little trim gun worked best for that. Two stage certainly was more work. I would think the best set up is To use the thick Outer flexible ring and the thin plastic cover for the Star.
