How to Use Edge Kote to Finish Raw Edges of Cork, Leather, or Vinyl Fabric 

Ila Allen... found the manufacturer's site ...they have 4 basic colors listed...might want to contact them directly www.fiebing.com/shop/?item=42731

They only offer a few for Edge Kote. If you want more colors for edge paint, try Angelus, Giardini, or Vernis.

bought at tandyleather.com However, some people use Qtips (just be sure you do not leave and cotton fibers - color can build/deepen/collect around it) some use a wool applicator, some us a glove and finger, find what works for you.

Try using isopropyl alcohol or methylated spirit

I just checked the Facebook group and people discuss vinyl interchangeably with cork in regards to Edge Kote so I would say yes!

Sorry - I had a search for information and I couldn't find anything useful! Maybe worth a test??

Bronwyn Carr thank you

you might want to try gum tragacanth. it is a natural tree resin which i would think would be less likely to chemically breakdown neoprene. What project are you working on that uses neoprene? if i may ask.

@@caroldean4417 thank you , I’m doing a swimsuit

I don't know if it would work but if it's peeling it's certainly worth giving it a go. You could also try this:sewsweetness.com/2021/02/video-how-to-use-giardini-paints-for-finishing-edges-of-cork-vinyl-or-leather.html

Just started working with leather a few months ago. Do you apply beeswax to your leather edges?

Edge Kote and Dura Edge are designed to be a finish. If you apply beeswax on top of or under this product, the color will bleed horribly.

@@TheLeathersmithShop Thanks for the information. I need to give it a try.

@@MakingwithMarilyn No problem. The Dura Edge is a newer product that is supposed to mimic the more expensive edge paints. But you can also try Angelus acrylic paint, Giardini, and Vernis. They are all designed for leather or leather edges. There are several videos of people using all of them here on youtube.

@@MakingwithMarilyn I should probably add that Edge Kote and Dura only come in a few colors. The dye card she shows here is for the dyes, not edge kote. The other products I listed have a wide variety of colors though.

FieBing’s Edge Kote seems to only come in black and brown based on looking at tandyleather.com website. however, it is not uncommon for edge coatings to come in the same colors as the dyes and thus it would be appropriate to use the dye card for reverence. I might even guess that some edge coats might use the leather dye to color the coating so the edges match the leather which would once again reference dye card.

@@caroldean4417 check ebay, it comes in other colors
