FAQs
Is this ink waterproof?
Yes, Ranger Archival Ink is waterproof once it has fully dried on your project surface.
Can I use this on glossy paper?
Archival ink works best on porous surfaces. While it may work on some glossy surfaces, drying time will be significantly longer.
How do I know when my pad needs more ink?
When the stamped image begins to look faint, patchy, or lacks deep contrast, it is time to re-ink.
Does this bottle come with an applicator tip?
Yes, the 0.5 oz bottle features a precision tip designed for controlled application.
Can this be used to refill other brands of dye ink?
No, this is specifically formulated for Ranger Archival dye ink pads and may not produce the intended permanent results with other brands.
Troubleshooting
The stamp image is too light after re-inking
Apply a few more drops of ink and allow it to sit for a longer period to ensure full saturation of the pad fibers.
Ink is pooling on the surface of the pad
You have over-inked the pad. Use a clean paper towel to gently blot the excess ink until the surface appears matte rather than wet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To re-ink your pad, turn your stamp pad upside down and gently apply droplets of the re-inker across the surface. Use a plastic card or the bottle tip to gently spread the ink evenly. Allow the ink to absorb into the pad for at least 15 minutes—or overnight for best results—before using it again. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after use to prevent evaporation. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This re-inker is specifically formulated for Ranger Archival Ink pads and may not yield consistent results with other brands or types of ink.
