Question

How often should I clean my Rubber Stamps?

Answer

Clean your stamps after every use. It is the single most important habit for keeping impressions crisp, and it takes far less effort than fixing a neglected stamp later.

  • Wet ink left on the surface dries into the fine details and blurs future impressions.
  • A quick wipe with a damp cloth right after stamping usually takes under a minute.
  • Skipping cleanings leads to built-up ink that needs a slow soak-and-scrub session to remove.
  • Regular cleaning also keeps different ink colors from contaminating one another.

Build the wipe-down into your stamping routine and deep cleaning rarely becomes necessary.
