The Difference is Clear

Hero Arts PolyClear Stamps

Hello friends! A new year full of creative possibilities lies ahead of us all, and we wanted to take a moment to share a bit about a topic close to our hearts — and that’s quality.

As clear stamps, and specifically Color Layering clear stamps, grow in popularity, we’re not surprised to see knock-offs and lesser quality sets hitting the market. Don’t be fooled, as it will affect the results you achieve.

Hero Arts PolyCLEAR® stamps are made in the USA from the best photopolymer, which is non-toxic and phthalate-free. Photopolymer is a porous material, specially engineered to beautifully transfer ink to paper and stay tacky and flexible for years of use.

Beware of cheap, low-quality clear stamps made from non-porous industrial by-products. They stamp poorly, harden quickly, lose their stick, and fall apart after only a few uses. We encourage you to seek out USA-made PolyCLEAR®. You’ll find this language on the packaging of all Hero Arts clear stamps, so you can be sure you’re getting a quality product.

Happy stamping!
