Question

Can I clean Rubber Stamps in the dishwasher?

Answer

No, never put stamps in the dishwasher. The combination of high heat, harsh detergent, and water pressure damages them quickly.

Heat warps rubber and can distort the impression permanently.
Detergents and water pressure dissolve the adhesives that hold mounted stamps together.
Wood-mounted stamps can swell, crack, or fall apart entirely.

Hand-clean instead with lukewarm water and mild soap. It takes less time than loading a dishwasher and keeps the stamp intact.
