Stamp

I ordered a new stamp pad today because re-inking no longer works. It seems like the pad has just been stamped too much. The lady said that perhaps my stamp is clogged and will not allow the ink to absorb any longer. What is the best way to clean and rejuvenate the rubber without wrecking the stamp?

Larry, I saw how to do that somewhere a long time ago. Maybe even on here. I'll try to remember.

Don't think it's the rubber part. It's the pad that's smashed flat in the same spot over & over & over, ad nauseum. Think you can buy a new ink pad for most of 'em.

That's what I thought Lee....

I was wondering about the suggestion by the stamp manufacture that it was possibly that the rubber would no longer absorb the ink. I ordered a new pad and requested a new authorization from the SOS so I could order the much touted "Stingray".

Thanks, Larry
