FIEBING'S GUM TRAGACANTH 4 FL.OZ/118 ML.
AED55.00Price
- Before using Gum Tragacanth, ensure that the leather surface you’ll be working on is clean and you may have already completed any necessary dyeing, staining, or tooling on the leather.
- Using a small amount of Gum Tragacanth on your Edge Paddle or dauber, apply it to the edge of the leather or the area you want to burnish. Rub it onto the leather surface focusing on even application.
- Once applied, use a burnishing tool, bone folder, or slicker to rub the Gum Tragacanth into the leather. Apply moderate pressure and continue rubbing until the edge becomes smooth and glossy. The friction generated by the burnishing tool helps to activate the Gum Tragacanth and bind the fibers of the leather together.
- Depending on the desired level of smoothness and shine, you may need to apply multiple coats of Gum Tragacanth and repeat the burnishing process several times.
- After burnishing, allow the Gum Tragacanth to dry completely. This usually takes a few minutes, but drying times may vary depending on factors such as temperature and humidity.
- Once the Gum Tragacanth has dried, you can further enhance the appearance of the leather by applying Fiebing’s Edge Kote. Fiebing’s Edge Kote is offered in 14 different color options that give the leather edge an elevated finished look.
- Remember to test Gum Tragacanth on a small, inconspicuous area of your leather project before applying it more broadly, especially if you’re working with delicate or exotic leathers. This will help ensure that the product produces the desired results without causing any damage.
