LEATHER EDGE PAINT

Description:

The Color Set includes 9 colors of leather edge paint in 100ml package. These colours have been chosen to provide a wide chromatic range from lighter to darker tones.

 

 

How to use:

Prepare the edges: Ensure the leather edges are clean, smooth, and free from dust or debris.

Apply the paint: Apply even coats using a edge paint applicator.

Allow to dry: Let the paint dry completely between coats. Typically, two coats are sufficient for optimal coverage and durability.

Burnish (optional): For an even smoother and more polished finish, burnish the edges with a canvas cloth or edge slicker once the paint is fully dry.

 

Tips:

For best adhesion, allow the paint to cure for at least 48 hours after application.  

If using a machine applicator, adjust the speed and pressure to achieve the desired finish.

Clean any spills or excess paint immediately with a damp cloth.
