It depends on the type of paint / how thick you apply it, IMO. I just used it today: the first time with acrylic paint on a shirt, then re-used my stencil for 3 more shirts using screen printing paint (slightly thicker than acrylic) and by the last shirt, it was seeping through. I think this is a combination of the stencil losing its sticky and the paint being very thick and taking a long time to dry, even with a hair dryer.
I'm also irked because it's a 12x24 roll, but when I used a design that was 9x7 it left me with very little material left. I certainly can not use my design twice to finish the number of shirts I need. Perhaps this was user error, but my design was at the top of my screen in DS... anyway.
Back to your original question, it depends on what material you're spray painting + how many times you plan to re-use the stencil. With the results I've had, I plan to go back to freezer stenciling and save some money in the future.
