Pre-inked stamps

Pre-Inked Stamps – pre-inked stamps are made from a gel, which contains the ink, and the gel is cured (baked) to the required shape during the manufacturing process.

Pre-inked stamps can give a print like quality impression but are not ideal for constant repetitive stamping as the gel die needs time to refresh between stamping. Looked after so they don’t dry out they will typically last a long time. We do not recommend re-inking of the stamp die when it dries out it, although this can be attempted, we recommend replacing the stamp.
