Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your stamp, ensure the surface of your paper is free from dust. When finished, clean the stamp using a mild stamp cleaner or a damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or alcohol-based cleaners, as these can degrade the stamp material over time. Store the stamp in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber from hardening or losing its shape. This stamp is compatible with most dye-based, pigment, and archival inks commonly found in hobby shops.
