What are Ranger Archival Ink Pads?
Ranger Archival Ink Pads are high-quality, fade-resistant, and waterproof dye inks. They’re designed for crisp, long-lasting impressions on a wide variety of surfaces.

Are the inks waterproof?
Yes. Once dry, Archival Ink is permanent and waterproof. This makes it ideal for watercoloring, using with markers, or layering other mediums over stamped images.

Do the inks fade over time?
No. Archival Ink is acid-free and designed to be fade-resistant, so your projects stay vibrant for years.

Can I use them on glossy or coated paper?
Yes. Archival Inks work on matte, glossy, and coated papers. They also stamp well on specialty surfaces like vellum and acetate. Drying times may vary depending on the surface.

How long do the ink pads last?
With normal use, Archival Ink Pads last a long time. If the ink begins to dry out, you can refresh them with a matching Ranger Archival Ink Re-inker.

Are Archival Ink Pads safe for scrapbooking?
Yes. They are acid-free and lignin-free, making them safe for memory keeping, scrapbooks, and photo projects.

Can I emboss with Archival Inks?
Archival Ink is fast-drying, so it’s not ideal for embossing powders. For embossing, a slower-drying ink (like embossing ink or pigment ink) works better.

Do the ink pads come in different sizes?
Yes. Ranger Archival Ink Pads are available in full-size pads and mini pads, perfect for different project needs and storage preferences.

How do I clean my stamps after using Archival Ink?
Because Archival Ink is permanent, regular soap and water may not remove all residue. For best results, use Ranger Archival Ink Cleaner.

What surfaces can I stamp on with Archival Ink?
Archival Ink can be used on paper, fabric, wood, acetate, shrink plastic, and more. Always test on your surface first, as drying times can vary.

How should I store the ink pads?
Keep them flat, tightly closed, and out of direct sunlight to extend their life. Store in a cool, dry place.
