If you want to re-ink your stamps, we have what you need. Here are some tips to ensure that your stamp lasts and retains its quality:
Rubber stamp or self-inking stamp ink is most commonly used for traditional hand stamps or self-inking stamps. This ink is water based and stays wet in the ink pad for years of use. It is safe to use on polymer and rubber stamps and works best on porous paper applications. Do not use in pre-inked stamps as it will ruin your stamp.
Pre-inked stamp ink is oil based and is formulated for use on porous paper and in pre-inked stamps. In pre-inked stamps, use only this type of ink.
Permanent ink is for applications where you will be stamping on metal or plastic. It dries in about 30 seconds and is for use with hand stamps with rubber dies only. When using, only apply a small amount to your ink pad as it will dry out in the ink pad and you will have to reapply anyway. Use in a well ventilated area.
We also have a few specialty inks for grocery, fabric marking and UV purposes. The inks listed on our site are the most popular types in the most commonly used colors. Please contact us if you wish to purchase these and we will provide a quote. Our email address is
