Carter's Neat-Flo Black Ink Refill for Re-Inkable Stamp Pads, 2 oz Bottle, 6-Pack (22348)

This ink works great and I haven't had any issue using it. One thing I liked is it washed right off of my rubber stamps. The seal is very hard to remove as previously noted, and I wish it was sold in a smaller quantity of three or four instead of one or six being the choice.

I just opened this product - I had read multiple negative reviews about it but ordered it anyway. It was not hard to open if you are careful. I got a tiny bit of ink on my thumb but could have avoided any ink if I wore gloves. I fixed my self-inking personalized stamp within minutes - just squeeze the bottle and some ink appears at the top of the sponge. A few dabs onto the ink pad and my stamp works as good as new. I even changed my stamp color from blue to black and it works great so far. There is enough ink in the bottle to do that probably 30 more times. As stated, I just got it so I'm not sure about the longevity of the ink, but certainly there is enough ink in the bottle to last a long while, even if the stamp pad itself dries more quickly. I definitely recommend this product for an outstanding price!

Ink for stamp pad. Pretty simple and what I need. Has the foam top for controlled distribution

Good value. Only issue, and the reason I deducted a star, is it was very difficult to remove the protective seal under the lid. Maybe your mileage will vary. This bottle was dated 2000, so hopefully a fresher item might not be as much of a hassle.Once I opened the lid, there was a peal away, foil and plastic barrier to keep the ink fresh. Good idea. I like my 13 year old ink to be fresh. It's similar to the type of seal you might find on vitamins, with a "convenient" pull-flap attached to the foil. The theory behind these seals is you're supposed to be able to pull on this flap and it will bring up the foil easily. In practice, they almost always tear off and leave you digging at the foil trying to get a corner so you can remove it. At least with vitamins you can just poke through with something sharp and carve away the seal. Not so much with this.The applicator surface is a porous dense material. Basically it's flat to the plastic edge of the top of the bottle, and with a light squeeze it dispenses ink in a controlled flow. Honestly I'd anticipated a raised, spongy material. Trying to get the foil seal off, and expose the applicator, I feared digging at it too much. Ultimately I scraped most of it away with a pair of cuticle scissors, and lifted the bits off with my fingertips. It was a bit messy, and not quite what I expected, but in the long run the item works. I use it to refill the trays in a variety of Custom Self-Inking Rubber Stamps that I have, similar to  this , and the ink quality seems fine.

Its just ink and it does the job at a really low price. Read all the reviews about how hard it is to get the seal off. While I do agree it does not peel off easily with the pull tab, if you just pull slowly until some part of the foil breaks away from the edge and work that part around to slowly remove it comes off easily. Just don't grab and yank on the pull tab. The hard sponge on the top makes dispensing the ink easy. No issues with me .

I bought this to refill my “identity protection” stamp. I was able to do so easily and on I went stamping. My issue is not with the ink but I think these stamp gobble up ink or I need a different ink designed for that use because it feels like I am constantly filling it now every couple of days. I have a lot of junk mail :< so this product IMO works as IT is intended but consider YOUR usage situation. TTFA

I hoped to use this ink for hand stamps, but no. After 30 minutes, it would still smear as if freshly stamped and rinsed off with water, no soap required. That may be good news for others, but disqualifying for my needs

It's a bottle of ink... :-)Under the screw-off cap is a felt-like applicator that is flush with the top of the plastic bottle. To ink-up something like a pad, stamp or roller, I point the applicator down and give the plastic bottle a slight squeeze, the bottle is pretty stiff so you'll have to put some pressure into the squeeze, please do this directly over over some newspaper just in case Murphy's Law happens to kick in.The Avery Carter's Stamp Pad Inker is probably designed to recharge stamp pads but I've managed to recharge some of my self inking stamps with a little disassembly of the stamp, I also have a rolling "stamp" of sorts that's used for obscuring your name & address on junk mail, that's a little bit harder to recharge with ink but it's doable.All in all, it's a good product.

Long lasting. Used to freshen the ink pads to make paw prints at work. So far lasting quite the long time.

Thank you. Quick dispatch and delivery, very happy with the product

works like a hot damn.

I don't like the sponge on the end. It is hard to get the right amount of ink on, either to much or not enough.

Couldn't get tab off on top to use. Had to break open and go around proper use to innovated way.
