I have never tried it with an electric toothbrush
I buy the value toothbrushes when I'm in the supermarket around 25p. I find them useful for cleaning loads of things not just rubber stamps. I keep one in the kitchen for graters and serrated knives and spouts. In fact I find them great for lots of awkward places, like around the back of taps. They are also good for creating paint effects - you scrape the bristles backwards (you can use a knife or your finger) and create a spattered effect. I wonder what other uses people on the forum have for the humble toothbrush. Jan |

Cleaning my teeth!!!!! lol
They also make brilliant cleaners for your jewellery - the bristles get into the tight spots under the stones. One drop of neat washing up liquid onto a nearly dry brush keeps my stones quite sparkly!! OH used to be a jeweller and you would be surprised how much dirt can accumulate under a diamond (even the biggest ones from the poshest customers!). We used to tell them to do this on a regular basis to save the cost of professional cleaning. Nina x |

The toothbrush sounds like a good idea. I've been using Baby wipes and they seem to work quite well.
I've not done a lot of stamping yet, I'm stilll getting used to it.

A soft toothbrush and a bit of toothpaste is great for cleaning your specs,
gets round those bits that keeps them on your nose. Jen |
