Description
Red Fiebing’s Edge Kote® 118ml is a flexible leather edge finish designed to colour and professionally finish the natural cut edges of leather. It produces a smooth, polished appearance while adding a rich red colour to handmade leather goods.
Once dry, Red Fiebing’s Edge Kote® creates a flexible, water-resistant coating with a semi-gloss finish. Because it remains flexible, it is particularly suitable for leather products that bend or move during everyday use, including belts, wallets, handbags, straps, dog collars, watch straps, knife sheaths and saddlery accessories.
It can be thinned with a small amount of water when a lighter or more fluid consistency is required. Several thin, even coats will generally produce a cleaner and more professional result than one heavy application.

How to Apply
Ensure the leather edge is clean, dry and smoothly prepared. Shake or stir the Edge Kote® thoroughly before use.
Apply a thin, even coat with an edge applicator, roller pen, dauber or fine brush. Allow the coating to dry completely before applying another coat. Several thin coats will usually produce a smoother and more consistent finish.
Lightly sand or refine the edge between coats if necessary. Always test the product on scrap leather first because leather colour, preparation and absorbency can affect the finished result.
