    Just wondering...Do you or don't you

    clean/wipe the ink off of your stamp every time you use it???

  2. Re: Just wondering...Do you or don't you

    I usually clean mine with a baby wipe when I'm done. If I'm using black ink I sometimes don't bother but normally I do clean them. Of course I haven't stamped in a VERY long time!

    wipe with a babywipe, but not always right away.

    Not always. I used to be really adamant about cleaning them right away but not so much anymore, After all I will probably use black ink next time too...right?

    Yep clean mine every time and especially before I put them away. Use a baby wipe now altho I use to always take them to sink and scrub with a scrubber and detergent. Have bought several stamp cleaners but baby wipes work just as well.

    No, I am bad for stamping and dashing away to the event as the ink dries! If I am using a light colour ink, I do give them a good clean before I stamp the image.

    I'm rather obsessive about cleaning them, not instantly, but soon enough after. Usually a baby wipe, but if it's a detailed image I have been known to use cleaner and a toothbrush.

    yeah--I use baby wipes too...they never look completely "unused" but that's as far as I go.

    Always before i put them away. Usually I use the SU stamp scrubber thing. I just never got used to the baby wipe. Dont know why, it's probably easier. Sometimes I use cleaner but if I'm using TH ink, I usually only use water to clean them. Obviously, if I use stayzon, I use stayzon cleaner.
