Default How do you get all the versamark off?

Hi,
I am obsessed with using versamark, and my stamps are building up a residual, especially the Stampin Around wheels. Has anyone got a good way to get it all off?

Try Ultra Stamp cleaner it is amazing! It is a little oily so you do not need as much. HTH!

Scrub the rubber with a baby wipe, then clean the stamp like normal. Works great for me, and I use Versamark a ton.

Don't know if they have this in Australia, but I use Dawn Power Dissolver. It's made for dishes, and it's in a spray bottle. It cleans off pretty much anything including StazOn.

I know this probably isn't good for the stamps but so far I haven't seen a problem. I use odorless mineral spirits and then follow up with a cleaning with baby wipes and stampin mist or Joy of Stamping to condition the stamp. You can buy odorless mineral spirits at the hardware store. I've heard that Mikes carries it but not where I live. It will also remove stazon and other permanent inks.

Also using an old toothbrush to get in between areas is a big help.

I use dish detergent with a toothbrush. I feel like it gets it pretty clean because versamark is kind of oily and dish detergent is designed to deal with oils.

I remember reading that baby wipes are not good for stamps - I might have seen that on here. HTH
