What Is a Stamp Shammy?

A good stamp feels like a trusted companion in your creative process; it fits perfectly into the story you're trying to tell. To keep that feeling alive, it occasionally needs just a little care. The Stamp Shammy is a soft, chamois-like cloth that brings your clear stamps back to clean, crisp condition in seconds. Dampen it slightly, gently rub your stamp face-down across it, and you're ready for your next layout.

Why Your Clear Stamps Deserve Regular Cleaning

Ink residue, dust, and a bit of fingerprint oil quietly build up in your stamp collection over time. You won't notice it right away, but you'll feel it in your work: an impression that's slightly less crisp, lettering that prints unevenly, a fine line drawing that loses some of its finesse. Cleaning your stamps regularly with the Stamp Shammy keeps every detail exactly as it was meant to be, so your layouts stay polished and refined, project after project.

A Surprising Second Effect: Restored Stickiness

What many makers don't realize is that the Stamp Shammy does more than clean. The gentle friction creates a static charge on the surface of your clear stamp, helping it adhere more firmly to your acrylic block again. A stamp that starts slipping is rarely worn out; it usually just needs a little attention. One simple motion solves both: clean and reliably in place again.

How to Use the Stamp Shammy

Lightly dampen the cloth; a drop of dish soap is optional, not required. Lay it flat on a clean surface and gently rub your stamp face-down across it. Let it dry for a moment before using it again or storing it away, and let the shammy itself air-dry as well. You don't need to wash it after every use, only once it feels noticeably dirty.

The shammy needs to be damped before every use
It arrives in a hard, stiff, state. Almost like firm foam. This is also how it will dry up after dampening and use.
Do not store the shammy while wet. Let it dry fully before putting it away.
