It's important to remove your [personal information from documents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deleteme) before recycling them, so the 'Plus Guard' roller stamp works to make sure this isn't a difficult task. Coming in several different size and stamp options, the 'Plus Guard' works by being run over a given block or line of text. The stamp will instantly apply a series of differently placed characters in order to instantly make the original marking appear completely illegible.

The 'Plus Guard' stamp roller works well for blacking out [personal information on mail](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/who-is-tracking-my-phone) and prescription containers but can also be used to [block some information out only](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/untitled-secures). This makes it great for documents that need to be shared with someone who you don't want to make privy to all the information outlined in the document.
