Description
Black Fiebing’s Edge Kote® 118ml is a flexible leather edge finish formulated to colour and professionally finish natural cut leather edges. It creates a smooth black coating with an attractive semi-gloss appearance, helping belts, bags, wallets and other handmade leather products achieve a clean, polished result.
Once dry, the coating remains flexible and water resistant, making it suitable for leather goods that regularly bend or move. The classic black colour is ideal for matching black leather, covering unfinished edges, refreshing worn black edges or creating a bold contrast against natural and coloured leather.
Black Fiebing’s Edge Kote® may be thinned with a small amount of water when a more fluid consistency is required. Applying several thin, even coats will generally deliver a smoother and more professional finish than one heavy coat.

How to Apply
Ensure the leather edge is clean, dry and smoothly prepared. Shake or stir the Edge Kote® thoroughly before application.
Apply a thin, even coat using an edge applicator, roller pen, dauber or fine brush. Allow the coating to dry completely before applying another coat. Several thin coats will usually create a smoother and more consistent result.
If required, lightly sand or refine the edge between coats. Always test the product on a piece of scrap leather first because the leather type, base colour, preparation and absorbency can affect the finished appearance.
