Basecoat must be used as first step ( as primer )
Its purpose is to create a base with excellent adhesion on the leather item, which also fills all the imperfections of the edge, especially the line in the middle when working on edges made of multiple layer hides.
It will improve the final quality of the edge and obtain a luxurious and high quality edge.

Giardini Basic Edge Paint is based on the polyurethane polymer MAXEDGE, which is the result of Giardini’s first development in the field of leather edge paint. This edge paint was the first to almost completely abandon acrylic technology, thus becoming the starting point for future developments, in particular as regards the ecological sustainability of edge paints.

To achieve a high quality leather edge finish the Basic Edge Paint should be applied in conjunction with the Basecoat Dense (id:10679), this combination allows you to achieve the best final quality of the leather edge, especially when working on leather edge of a medium-large width (see the video tutorials about how to use the Basecoat). The paint comes with a standard opacity, but if you want a glossy effect or an extra-matte effect, you can apply topcoat on top of it in order to get the desired finish. The product can be simply applied by hand using a Roller Dye Pen and once dried it can be finished according to the traditional finishing operations such as brushing, sanding or ironing. Shelf-life is much more than other water-based paint, making it the most indicated choice for hobbyist or small leather crafters.

• Function: Edge Dye & Coat for Leather
  Simply remove the outer cap and inner cap (behind the applicator), then reattach and saturate the applicator in edge dye. Ensure your leather is clean and free of treatments or contaminants and run the saturated applicator over the edge of your leatherwork until the desired amount has been applied and leave to dry. For optimum results, gently burnish the lacquer shortly after it has become tack free, yet still pliable.
• Note : These edge dyes are designed for vegetable tanned leather, basically if you leather can absorb the dye then it should work, but if your leather is sealed and does not absorb the dye then it may peel off over time. It may be possible to roughen the edge of your leather with an sandpaper, exposing the grain or absorbent surface, then applying the edge dye. However, as we cannot guarantee this method will work in all cases, please take precautions to ensure your leatherwork is not damaged and always test this method on a test piece to see if it will yield the results desired, before progressing onto your actual project.
