Here's the transcript for the above video:
"First, we'll do the refill ink."
"Flip your stamp over and put it in the locked position. Grab the two tabs on the stamp pad and remove the pad itself. You grab your bottle of ink and put about 3 to 4 drops of ink across the pad. And let that soak in for a few seconds. When the ink has soaked into the pad, and there are no more pools, you can insert it back into the stamp itself. And push the stamp down and unlock it. And you have successfully re-inked your stamp."
"The second option is to buy a totally new replacement pad. And in that case you will follow the same procedures."
"You'll push the stamp down, and lock it. You will remove the stamp pad. You'll take your new pad and remove the cover. You'll take the new pad itself and insert it into the stamp. Then depress the stamp, and unlock it."
"And you've got a brand new stamp."
