HOW TO REFILL
THE RED INK.
Refill only when repeated test impressions remain pale. Use compatible red ink intended for self-inking stamp pads, add it sparingly, and allow time for the pad to absorb it.

THE USEFUL DETAILSONE QUESTION.
ONE QUESTION.
A COMPLETE ANSWER.
Use the right ink
Choose red refill ink labeled for self-inking stamp pads. Solvents or unrelated art inks may damage the pad, rubber, or plastic body.
Refill gradually
Expose the internal pad according to the stamp mechanism, add only a few drops, and allow them to absorb. Test before adding more to avoid saturated, blurry impressions.
