Would these stamps work well for washer stamping? What types of materials have you successfully stamped?

Yes, silverware, all types of jewelry metals, thick paper, brass. This is a great set to start with.

To date, I have only used them on metal clay before it was kiln fired, and the stamps were very clear. (just had to use a light touch!)

so far I have not been able to stamp anything! I am not sure if I need more strength or different stamps. I bought them to stamp old silverware & then use them as plant stakes.

If the washers aren't very hardened, I'm sure you'll have no problem. I have yet to try and stamp a Grade 8 washer, I doubt it would have much effect.These stamps work great, but the back stop is every bit as important. I know that using a heavy desk, or even a concrete floor will not work too well, you really need to buy a steel jeweler block and a full sized hammer (for stamping steel.)

I haven't used them on metal...i use then to mod plastic parts which they work great for. I would assume they would work on softer metals or to do precise work on metals like gun smithing. Again i would only use them to take off very tiny amounts of metal. I didn't see a country stamp on them but a would bet china or some asiain country.

Well, yes, and no. I found these towels great for embroidery! They washed well, no ironing needed!! They took transfer well, and were so long, that I was able to cut a couple in half to use. I thoroughly enjoyed embroidering these, and it seemed to go fast! But these towels aren't vintage in any way, and are a nice crisp white. You could have a lot of fun altering these to look more vintage, so,....enjoy !!!

Not sure why everyone voted no to this. I used iron on material in this label maker to label all my baby's blankets for daycare and they've washed perfectly with no fading yet.

I have used them to mark my children's clothing with them name when they visit their grandparents, and a few other items for what does where to assemble things such as couch covers, etc. They seem to hold up well with regular washing, but, not sure about detergents with bleach as I don't use them. The black ones seem to hold up much longer. My eldest Granddaughter made a design on one of ther t-shirts and colored it in with the Sharpies and the colors held up with washing OK. But, I would not recommend using it on silky or stretchy material.

I bought them to be used with a metal stamp so I don't know if they would work with an embossed.

In a camp setting we used chunky foam stamps with craft paint ammended with textile medium and after the bags dried, we ironed according to directions to set the paint. It worked well and the kids enjoyed the craft project.

I haven't tried, but I doubt it, because it runs thin. You may want to use something like OPI quality for stamping, since they are thicker, and they are not opaque, very glossy.

Ive never used these for stamping but if I describe them to you, maybe it will help with your decision a bit.The colors are vibrant, theyre highly metallic, and they arent super runny or transparent but they also arent incredibly tacky in texture like how older nail polish gets. And if you do regular polish, you still would do 2 coats to get the optimal color. Same as most polish.(I like to do a white base coat with them as well.)

I love these! They aren't to stiff they will bend some but the stamps! They are really useful when you have some over size stamp sets. Some set don't stick so well at times so I use rubber cement or Zots glue dots work too.

Figure you could try it on a scrap, but if it were me, I would use Stazon (hope I'm spelling this right) brand ink pads... that stuff stamps on ANYTHING!

The magnets themselves are quite strong despite their small size. Provided the metal washers are magnetically attracted to neodymium, they should work perfectly.

I dont see why not. You might need to anneal them first to make the metal softer and easier to stamp.

Yes. We get lots of paperwork that needs stamping. I like this stamper because it's light.

It is thick good quality polish, the ones I have tried so far at least...so yes I believe so depending ghow you are going to stamp them...as I have never done that myself

I have used it with paper and card stock. It works really well. Have not tried it with fabric, foam, or anything else. It prints/embosses on certain metals nicely too. Its very useful. I use a dye with a pillow box shape, with a crease pad and it gives me awesome boxes for placing small gifts inside!!

I would make sure you took the protective plastic off the plates, and if you have I would try priming the stamper by gently filing the gloss off the rubber ends be careful not to file too much. Then if none of these tricks works it may be your actual plates.
