How to Use:

Lightly dampen the leather edge or apply a burnishing agent such as gum tragacanth or beeswax. Select the appropriate burnisher shape for your edge and rub briskly back and forth to generate friction and heat. This compresses the leather fibers, creating a smooth, shiny edge. Repeat as needed for a high-gloss finish.

The Leather Burnishing 3 Piece Set is a must-have for anyone looking to elevate their leathercraft with beautifully finished edges that combine durability and style. Perfect for all skill levels, this set ensures your leather projects stand out with a professional touch.

How to Burnish a Leather Edge:

1. Prepare the Edge: Trim the edge with a sharp knife and sand it smooth using fine-grit sandpaper.
2. Moisten the Edge: Lightly dampen the edge with water using a sponge or cloth. Do not soak it—just enough to raise the fibers.
3. Apply Gum or Wax (Optional): For a smoother finish, apply 
   Gum Tragacanth, Tokonole, or beeswax.
4. Burnish the Edge: Use a wooden or plastic burnishing tool. Rub it quickly back and forth along the edge with firm pressure. Friction will generate heat and smooth the fibers.
5. Repeat if Needed: Reapply moisture or gum and continue burnishing until the edge is smooth, shiny, and sealed.
