Frequently Ask Questions
Q: Can you email me a list of available fonts and ink colours?
A: Click here to download our font and ink colour sheet. Colours for our Pigmented ink pads can be found here.
Q: What's the difference between a rubber, pre-inked and self-inking stamp?
A: Rubber stamps are for use with an ink pad. With pre-inked stamps the ink is contained within the die and will give you several thousand impressions and when the stamp starts to fade you can bring it back to life by apply a few drops of the re-inking fluid. Self-inking stamps have a rubber printing surface which rests on the built-in ink pad until required for stamping, then you simply push the stamp down to make an impression.
