Custom Clear Stamps

Custom clear stamps from RubberStamps.com are made from high-quality transparent photopolymer — also known as acrylic stamps or cling stamps — and attach to any clear acrylic block for precise, perfectly-placed impressions every time. Because they're transparent, you can see exactly where your design will land before you stamp. Create your own personalized clear stamp with custom text, a logo, monogram, or uploaded artwork.

WHAT ARE CLEAR STAMPS?

Clear stamps (also called photopolymer stamps, acrylic stamps, or cling stamps) are made from a flexible, transparent polymer material. They cling to a clear acrylic block — sold separately — which acts as the handle. The transparency of both the stamp and the block lets you see through the stamp for exact placement, making them the #1 choice for card makers, scrapbookers, and paper crafters who need precision.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What is the difference between clear stamps and regular rubber stamps?
A: Clear stamps are made from transparent photopolymer and cling to an acrylic block. Regular rubber stamps use an opaque rubber die on a wood or self-inking mount. The key advantage of clear stamps is see-through placement precision.

Q: Do clear stamps come with an acrylic block?
A: Acrylic blocks are sold separately. One block can be used with any size clear stamp — just swap stamps in and out as needed.

Q: What ink works best with clear stamps?
A: Clear stamps work with virtually any ink — dye, pigment, archival, chalk, and embossing powders. For best results, use inks designed for photopolymer stamps.

Q: Can I upload my own design for a custom clear stamp?
A: Yes! Upload a high-resolution PNG or JPG during checkout and we'll create your personalized clear stamp from your artwork.

Q: How do I store clear stamps?
A: Re-apply the protective film that came with your stamp, or store flat on a backing sheet of parchment paper. Keep away from direct sunlight and heat, and avoid placing heavy items on top of them.

Q: How do I clean clear stamps?
A: Gently wipe the stamp surface with a damp cloth or stamp cleaner after each use. Avoid harsh solvents that can degrade the photopolymer.

Q: Are photopolymer stamps the same as acrylic stamps or cling stamps?
A: Yes — photopolymer stamps, acrylic stamps, cling stamps, and clear stamps all refer to the same type of transparent polymer stamp. The terms are used interchangeably.
