I'm having a problem with some of my stamps sticking to the acrylic block.  I even bought new blocks thinking the ones I had were getting ruined.  It's not the blocks.

Some of my stamps stick really well, but it seems the ones I recently bought in a pack (forget whose, but from a company you wouldn't expect problems from)  keep falling off.  I've been using doublesided tape, but not happy having to do that.

When I clean them, I do not use soap and I do not dry them.  I let them air dry on my bathroom counter.

Help!!!!..any suggestions???

Thanks, Nee...does it last a while or do you need to spray everytime you need your stamp to stick.  I always put my stamps back on the plastic sheet it came with, but I've actually lost stamps because they didn't hold and I didn't know it!

I always reapply it, but I wash it off everytime...I suppose if you left it on, it would stay tacky...

Wendi, I use baby wipes too, but I still lost the stickyness (or is it stickiness?)....

Some clear stamps just do that...loose their stickyness...I just use a bit of my adhesive runner and wash off everytime.  That lady who owned a stamp site that was here for a while said you shouldn't leave them mounted on the stuff they come on either...just an idea.

the sheets they come on supposedly are treated with something for 'shelf life' I think is what she said.  She recommeded cd cases and some other things.  I still keep some of mine that way, just because I haven't switched.  But I really like the inserts for 3 ring binders I bought at www.mandarinpixie.com they're on sale there now I believe with the store closing...
