Troubleshooting
Stamp not adhering to acrylic block
Ensure both the rubber stamp and the acrylic block are clean and free of dust or residue. Re-apply pressure to adhere.
Uneven or faint stamped image
Check that the stamp is inked evenly. Ensure you are applying consistent pressure when stamping. The rubber may need cleaning if ink is not transferring properly.
Ink smudging after stamping
Allow the ink to dry completely before touching the stamped area. Consider using a faster-drying ink or a fixative spray if smudging persists.
Stamp losing cling over time
Clean the cling foam with a baby wipe or a damp cloth to remove any oils or residue that may be hindering adhesion. Allow it to air dry completely.
