Uniters - Pro Heatable Edge Paint (Matte)

Uniter's heatable edge paint is one of the best edge paints we have found in our search for an edge paint with great penetration and adhesion, durability and flexibility. Uniters has become an industry leader and is pushing the envelope with new R&D developments. What has set Uniters apart is their versatility. Many edge paints have moved to thicker viscosities to save time in production with less coats. In large manufacturing this is a time saver, but outside of a very controlled environment this can cause issues with adhesion. Certain leathers with waxier content can inhibit penetration. For Uniters they have developed their product line with certain additives to custom tailor the edge paint to your leather and finished goods. We carry all their additives: thickeners, thinners, gloss finish, semi gloss finish and primer (EP Coat). Colors: We are currently stocking 50 colors in house!

Be careful not to remove to much paint. Light sanding is all you need Repeat steps 3 & 4 until desired result Finishing options:  Matte - Leave matte finish as is Semi-Gloss - Apply beeswax and rub in with wax spatula or canvas cloth  Gloss Protective Layer - Apply Uniters EP Gloss Finish for that beautiful glossy finish *Note if you want thicker or thinner edge paint you can use our additives to get just the right viscosity you want for your specific project.
