Edge Finishing Guide
Guide for edge finishing
Bevel the Edge
Use an edge beveler matching your leather thickness. Run along both sides of the edge to round it.
Sand Smooth
Sand the edge with progressively finer grits: 220, 400, then 600. Sand along the length, not across.
Apply Gum Tragacanth
Apply a thin coat of gum tragacanth or Tokonole to the edge. Let it absorb for 30 seconds.
Burnish with Canvas
Rub firmly with canvas or denim scrap using rapid back-and-forth motion. Edge should become glossy.
Optional: Edge Paint/Coat
For a colored or extra-smooth edge, apply edge paint after burnishing. Sand between coats.
