Put ink on ink pad, just enough to saturate the pad and test with stamp to make sure you can pick up enough ink for an impression.

When the pad is not in use, we recommend closing the pad, locking it and placing it inside a ziplock bag. This will help with drying out completely.

If you are using the pad all day, and the ink is starting to dry out or get lighter, we recommend adding more ink in this situation, not thinner. You may need the thinner the next day if the pad has hardened.

THE ONLY TIME YOU WILL NEED TO USE THE 752 THINNER IS IF THE PAD HAS HARDENED. YOU ONLY NEED A TINY BIT TO SOFTEN THE PAD AGAIN. IF YOU PUT TOO MUCH THINNER THE INK WILL BE TOO THINNED OUT AND WILL NOT STAY ON.

If you have more questions on how to use this ink and pad please call us! 800-469-7826
