How do you use this product? Do you pour it on to the stamps? I want to stamp a logo on to the sides of my cardboard boxes, how would I go about it?

To stamp a logo, first you should make a stamper, and then, like you said, pour it on to the stamper and stamp it on the cardboard boxes. It's water-soluble, so it it not suitable to be used on plastic or wood. Hope the answer is helpful.

No! -- I am a retired professional mover. Do not use color coded stickers. Rather, print the room where the box is to be delivered with a sharpie on the TOP of the box. Stickers do not always remain stuck on cardboard boxes. Color coding can be confusing. Stickers on the side of the box are visible only 25% of the time, whereas the top of the box is always visible whenever the box is picked up. If color coded stickers were a better system professional movers would use them. Do it the way we always did: write on the top of the box with a sharpie.

I used the stamp for a 3 line return address stamp, and really like it. It's a good quality and gets used a lot. Hope that helps.

I think you would be able to print or stamp a logo on the outside. There is no coating on them. We use them with a custom made sleeve for our church. They are made for hot items but would be difficult to hold without a sleeve, too hot.

Don't squeegee all of the polish off of the plate. Also, I used some YouTube videos. But it worked for me way better when I squeegeed lightly, pressed the stamper hard onto the plate to pick up the polish, and then pressed hard onto my nail. I used Sinful Colors myself. Worked well.

We bought these to use at my daughter's wedding. We used stickers on them. I think with the right ink you could stamp on them but it will be difficult as they are curved.

ummm......there is a blue plastic cover on the fronts, that needs to be removed before use, on the fronts. On the backs there is a paper covering. As for protecting your fingers? I don't know. I put them flat on a paper towel, polish, scrape, stamp. My fingers don't touch the plate as I'm stamping, so I'm not exactly sure what there would be to protect. Does that help at all?

The instruction on the box, "use ANY washable markers to draw your design on the enclosed pre-cut paper,..." but if you have doubts and want to ensure good quality please look up the company's web site, it's MAKEIT PRODUCTS, INC at "makeit-com" ( that's with the www, and with a dot, not slash, just not sure amazon would display it :)), and scroll down there to FAQ, you in fact, find the list of " What are the approved/not approved markers ?" and a bunch of other useful information is there as well. It should help ! :)

I used a paint brush to apply DecoArt elegant finish metallic paint. Then I sprayed a letter from a aerosol can have a lay on the top of the cardbox and lightly on the sides of the cardbox. Good luck&#128522;

I've seen a video on YouTube where someone uses a gold shellac gel polish with stamping and it worked. I never got it to work with the colors I have though. But these plates would work just the same as any other good quality plates. What you can do though, that I do all the time, is do a gel polish mani, but before the top coat, wipe the sticky layer and use regular polish to stamp, then wait a few minutes then apply the top coat of gel polish. :)

I've used this on boxes - shipped through USPS. No problems. Other than that - not sure.

I had no luck with it. I have read several other post that say to file the stamper and use a thick polish. I haven't tried it yet though.

What a great idea! Yes, you could do that, and I'm going to as well! They are large and stiff so I think it will work best with a little padding under the paper you are stamping. I used them to make clay ornaments.

If you mean that it came that way on the box then contact the seller. Mine came in a long square box tube and was wrapped like wrapping paper which was perfect. Now, if you mean that you got impatient and messed it up, then take a deep breath and try and carefully take them apart. I would forget about the clear sticker but this means you will have to try and put the words on straight yourself. It doesn't stick on well to semi-gloss paint, but once you stick on you can flatten out the creases. I found that heating the words up with a blow dryer (not closely though) while pressing them right after, helped a ton to help stick.

We can do it either way, however, if you design your own stamp, please convert the fonts and send us a vector .pdf. Otherwise, we would prefer for you to send your logo and we set up the stamp. You can request a proof when you email us after you place your order. Let me know if you have any other questions.Thanks so much.Lisa

Easy breezy just get label paper and print it, or send your logo to Office Depot and have them print for you and stick it on like a stamp �

Sometimes stampers need to be "primed" take the stamp head out and wash it with dish soap and let it dry... that has helped some people. Some others have wiped it with a mr clean magic eraser as well and that has helped. Others have lightly rubbed a nail file across it til the shine was removed. I would suggest starting out just washing with dish soap and go from there.. try it after each method to see if it's picking up.
