Benefits

Professional, Polished Finish

Fiebing Edge Kote provides a high-quality, uniform coating that transforms raw leather edges into smooth, professional-looking finishes. It’s the secret to achieving that luxury edge found in high-end leather goods.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Once dry, Edge Kote creates a tough, flexible surface that resists cracking, peeling, and scuffing. This ensures your leather projects remain beautiful and strong even with daily wear and handling.

Easy Application and Quick Drying

The water-based formula spreads evenly and dries fast, saving time while maintaining precision. It’s beginner-friendly but offers the quality results professionals demand.

Protects Against Moisture and Fraying

By sealing the raw edges, Edge Kote prevents moisture absorption and edge damage — crucial for maintaining the structure and life of belts, straps, and bags.

Large Quantity for Heavy Use

The 32oz (900ml) bottle offers exceptional value for money. It’s perfect for workshops, leather manufacturers, or frequent crafters who need a reliable, long-lasting edge coating supply.

Works with All Leather Types

Edge Kote is suitable for both vegetable-tanned and chrome-tanned leathers, as well as most smooth, finished surfaces. It can be used on natural leather or recoloured surfaces with equally consistent results.

Eco-Friendly and Low Odour

As a water-based product, it’s safer to use and easy to clean up with soap and water. It’s ideal for home studios or workshops where ventilation is limited, offering a more sustainable alternative to solvent-based coatings.
