In a thread last week, NancyRuth suggested Suave Tropical Coconut shampoo. I haven't tried it yet, but for 88�, it's on my shopping list. http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...d.php?t=478220

I do ultraclean too, I get it from Gina K and she sells refills too. Funny thing about my ultraclean, it arrives blue but always turns a pinkish purple color. But it still works great. It cleans everything, stazon, pigment, dye, all of it. And I've gotten second hand stamps several times that were REALLY stained and a good scrubbing with the ultraclean and the rubber is just like brand new. Love it! The shampoo sounds interesting too, but as I mentioned, I bought the ultraclean in bulk, so it would be a while before I need that. |
Stamp cleaner
Favorite is Stampin Up's. Nice smell and cleans well! The small spray bottle is portable and there is a larger refill which lasts forever.
|
I like Ranger Inkssentials stamp cleaner it's bubble gum scented. But does not clean stazon ink. I recently made my own using baby shampoo, glycerin, & distilled water. I think it works as good as the Ranger and is cheaper.

Ultra Clean.
or JudiKins Solvent Ink Cleaner (but, it has fumes, so if you are sensitive, it may not be a good option for you). I used to use it until I found Ultra Clean. These two were the best I've found yet. |
Another vote for Ultra Clean. A little spray goes a long way!
|
Stampin Mist, Ultra clean and also going to try the Suave Coconut shampoo...I actually have some in my shower...lol
blessings. |
Could somebody tell me where to find the Ultra Clean cleaner? Please.
|
Ultraclean! I get mine from Gina K. Its great!
|
Thank you debbiemom23cs.

Another vote for Ultraclean!!
I get it at Gina K and/or Archiver's. |
Ultraclean ...
It just doesn't get any better than this one. ;) I keep the large refill bottle tucked away, and keep the little mister right next to my stamp scrubber. |
I initially bought SU's cleaner, but since I stamp nearly every day it was not cost effective. I found this recipe that smells and performs just like SU's...I keep it in a gallon milk jug and refill my small mister bottle. Works great!

Is Ultraclean also safe for clear stamps?
|
According to the Stewart Superior website, Ultra Clean is for both clear and rubber stamps. http://www.stewartsuperior.com/html/stamp_cleaners.html

Just resurrecting this old thread - I love how UltraClean get the SU Basic Black/Grey and StazOn off my stamps, BUT it's very greasy, and I use it only for stamps used with the Basic Black and StazOn. Also, people say that it can damage your clear blocks - read this:
http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...ght=ultraclean So I prefer baby wipes or SU Stampin' Mist for everything except Black/StazOn. And when I do use those and UltraClean, if the stamp is unmounted rubber, I put it on one of my cheapie acrylic blocks (not my nice SU ones) so I don't damage my good ones. |
None other than Ultraclean. It has a power to clean almost every stains.
|
Word of warning because I learned the hard way...I left an acrylic block face down on my stamping desk after I took off the stamp and left it there overnight. When I came back the next day, it was stuck to the table and after a good tug, it came off--along with some of the finish-kind of like small really small bubbles. My guess is that it had some Ultra Clean still on it that dissolved some of the finish.
I still use it, but I am careful where I put my blocks down afterward! :) |
Basic soap and water works great and is cheap! StazOn Cleaner used for StazOn inks.
|
Well, to add my two cents worth, I use Tsukineko Stamp Cleaner and Stayzon Cleaner. (They make Versacolor, Versacraft, Stayzon and Versamark). I find them to be quite economical for the amount of use I get. I am fastidious about cleaning my stamps. I have tried things like baby wipes and Stampin'Up cleaner, but was not happy with them. I have got a Stampin' Cleaner Pad which I really like as it does a good job that way. I think if you stamp alot, a cleaner pad is a necessity.
I will try the formula given in a thread above to make my own see what happens. Thanks for sharing all your ideas. |
Ultraclean for me. I dont have any blocks that are crazed. I love this cleaner. I have gotten some stamps off ebay that were terribly stained and the ultraclean got them clean. I got mine at www.7kidscollegefund.com. Shes great to work with... Warning though her site is dangerous to the stampin budget lol.

I recently ordered some Ultraclean because of all the recommendations in this thread...it's incredible! It definately lives up to all the praises received here. I ordered mine from Ellen Hutson. Thanks for the tip about this product!

Thanks for the info on cleaners!

Another vote for Ultra Clean! Love the stuff! I have had a 2 oz. bottle for a couple of years and there's still a bit in the bottom; I had bought a refill but havn't needed it yet. One of the things I really like is that it stays moist on my scrubber, so I don't need to use some every time I stamp.

I stamp and rub the die on a scrap piece of craft foam to get as much ink off the stamp, rub the KO over the die, and wipe it off with a damp sponge. If the gunk has dried rock hard (acrylic paint is a good example of this), the KO stays on the die overnight, then scrubed with a bit of water and a cheapo battery operated toothbrush (less than $5.00 at the dollar store). No smell, non-toxic, ultra inexpensive...great stuff! |
I use The Angel Company cleaner and i love it. I think (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that it's made by Ultra Clean? It's blue and it cleans everything even really badly stained rubber :)
