Troubleshooting
Stamp impression is faint or uneven.
Ensure the stamp is inked evenly. Try applying more consistent pressure when stamping. Check if the paper surface is too absorbent or textured. Clean the stamp if old ink residue is present.
Ink smudges after stamping.
This can be due to over-inking the stamp or using a very fast-drying ink on a non-porous surface. Ensure you are not over-inking and allow adequate drying time for the ink.
Stamp rubber seems to be degrading or sticking.
Ensure the stamp is cleaned and dried properly after each use. Store away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use only stamp-compatible cleaners.
Stamp doesn't pick up ink properly.
Clean the stamp thoroughly to remove any residue. Ensure the ink pad is not dried out and has sufficient ink. Try a different type of ink if the current one is incompatible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a rubber stamp and requires a separate ink pad and a stamping block for use. Select your desired ink color and apply it evenly to the surface of the stamp by dabbing it onto the ink pad. Ensure full coverage without over-inking, which can lead to smudged impressions.
Compatibility: The Art Stamps FG30 is compatible with most standard rubber stamp inks, including dye-based, pigment, and chalk inks. It performs best on smooth to semi-smooth paper surfaces. Avoid excessively textured or porous materials where ink may bleed or be absorbed unevenly.
Care: To ensure the longevity and performance of your stamp:
- Cleaning: Immediately after each use, clean the stamp thoroughly. Use a stamp cleaner or a damp cloth with a mild soap. Gently wipe away any excess ink.
- Drying: Allow the stamp to air dry completely before storing. Do not use heat to dry.
- Storage: Store the stamp in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep it attached to its original backing or a clean stamping block to protect the rubber surface. Ensure the rubber side is not pressed against abrasive surfaces.
