Question 1

Do I need to clean my stamps after every use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a quick wipe after each session is the easiest way to keep them in great condition — and fresh ink is far easier to remove than dried ink.

Question 2

Why is my clear stamp still stained after cleaning?

Accepted Answer

That's completely normal. Darker inks leave colour behind, but as long as no ink transfers onto your paper, the stamp is clean and ready to use.

Question 3

Can I use water to clean my stamps?

Accepted Answer

A lightly dampened Simply Shammy is all you need. There's no need for sprays, soaking or special cleaners for everyday cleaning.

Question 4

What if I don't have a Simply Shammy?

Accepted Answer

You can use a damp baby wipe or a soft, damp cloth in a pinch — the goal is simply to lift the ink off gently while it's fresh.
