Introduction
The PLUS Guard Your ID Identity Protection Stamp Roller Refill provides a convenient and effective method for concealing sensitive personal information on documents. This refill pack is designed for use with the Guard Your ID roller, delivering an encrypted pattern in oil-based ink that penetrates non-glossy paper surfaces. This ensures that text such as names, addresses, and account numbers are rendered unreadable on both sides of the paper, offering enhanced privacy protection.
Product Features
- Easy to Use: Designed for quick application, allowing users to mask long lines of text in a single stroke. The patented pattern and ink cover approximately six lines of standard text.
- Long Lasting: Each refill cartridge provides approximately 1,600 impressions or 160 feet of coverage. The pattern width is 1.0 inch.
- Eco-Friendly Alternative: Offers a simple, effective, and quiet alternative to traditional shredders, reducing mess and promoting recyclability.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for various non-glossy documents including bills, credit card offers, bank statements, tax returns, postcards, and junk mail.
- Advanced Ink Technology: Features a uniquely designed patented pattern combined with oil-based ink that penetrates non-glossy papers, ensuring personal data cannot be seen from either side. For glossy surfaces or prescription bottles, the Guard Your ID Advanced Roller is recommended.

Setup and Refill Installation

- Remove Old Cartridge: Carefully remove the used ink roller cartridge from the unit. Dispose of it responsibly.
- Insert New Refill: Take a new Guard Your ID refill cartridge from the pack. Align the new cartridge with the designated slot in the roller unit. Gently push it into place until it clicks securely.

Operating Instructions
- Prepare Document: Place the document with sensitive information on a flat, stable surface.
- Activate Roller: If your roller unit has a retractable mechanism, push the button or slide the cover to expose the ink roller.
- Apply Stamp: Gently press the roller onto the area of the document you wish to conceal. Roll it smoothly and evenly over the text. A single, continuous stroke is often sufficient for standard text.
- Verify Coverage: Check the stamped area to ensure all sensitive information is completely obscured. The oil-based ink is designed to penetrate non-glossy paper, making the text unreadable from both sides.
- Repeat if Necessary: For very dense text or if any information is still visible, apply additional strokes, overlapping slightly, until full concealment is achieved.
- Retract Roller: After use, retract the roller into its casing to prevent the ink from drying out and to keep the roller clean.

Maintenance
- Storage: Always retract the roller after use to protect the ink from drying out and to prevent accidental marks. Store in a cool, dry place.
- Cleaning: If the roller becomes dusty or has lint, gently wipe it with a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using water or solvents, as this may damage the ink or roller mechanism.
- Refill Replacement: Replace the refill cartridge when the ink begins to fade or the pattern becomes inconsistent. Follow the "Setup and Refill Installation" steps.
Troubleshooting
- Faint or Incomplete Coverage:
- Ensure the roller is pressed firmly and evenly across the document.
- The ink cartridge may be running low. Replace with a new refill.
- For glossy or slick paper, the ink may not adhere well. Consider using the Guard Your ID Advanced Roller for such surfaces or apply multiple, overlapping strokes.
- Ink Smudging:
- Allow a few seconds for the ink to dry, especially on less absorbent paper types.
- Ensure the roller is clean and free of debris that might cause uneven application.
- Roller Not Extending/Retracting:
- Check for any obstructions in the mechanism.
- Ensure the cartridge is correctly installed.
