Default after reading all the...

after reading all the 'stamp cleaning' threads, i saw that only a few raved about the tropical coconut shampoo by suave.

well, me being a collector of shampoo (no, not really, i just buy it when its on sale :P) i had some of this shampoo in my shed that i keep all my horse tack in because i use it to wash my horse.

so there i was, at 1:30am last night, in the washroom, with about 20stamps and coconut shampoo. IT WORKED! it got every little stain off my rubber stamps. most of them were those $1.50 stamps from michaels, as i use the stazon ink on those because i didnt care if they stained or not. well, THE LORD OF THE COCONUT took off the ink by the way, i didnt dilute it at all. i simply used luke warm water, and a soft toothbrush, and just ran the stamp under the water, then put a glob of the shampoo on the stamp, and scrubbed it with the toothbrush.

worked like a charm. im never wasting my money on stamp cleaner again.

Good to know, LOL!

Is it ONLY the tropical coconut shampoo that works? Not a coconut fan, so I was just wondering!!!

I had forgot about this, thanks for reminding me.

I even have some of this shampoo in my shower right now and I've always wanted to try this
