How I finish my edges Burnishing Edges on Leather

There are lots of different ways to burnish your edges when doing leather work. Here is a quick demonstration of what I do to burnish mine. Gets them nice and glassy every time.

Grade school with your boogies! LMAO I’m going to try this!

[@ronaldhill6760]

I did the glue mix formula and really like it! The second sanding is what I have not done and will from now on. I also found that if you wait a few minutes before rubbing it works even better.

[@blitzinurzua]

I literally was just searching for your Elmers glue and water mixture through your other videos that you had mentioned it on and now you go ahead and make a video awesome 👏🏼 😂 🙌🏼👍🏼

[@staceyboyd8236]

I've never heard of Elmer's and water! I'll definitely try this. 👍

I use Martin’s Mix with an applicator. Sand to four hundred grit then burnish with canvas. For a super glass edge I resand with 600 then burnish. Like Ron’s the Martin’s doesn’t like a burnishing wheel. Canvas is much faster and leaves a better finish.

Great video. If I wanted to dye the edge...should I dye before I apply the glue solution...or do you think the dye goes last after the burnishing/sanding is done?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Yes, I meant to cover that. I dye my edge after the first sanding and using the edger.

For some reason I never get any notifications from CZcams that you have put out a new video.

[@makersleathersupply1220]

It's not enough to subscribe any more, now you have to click the bell button too and then it will notify you I believe.

[@travissuits5038]

If you dont mind me asking, which leather did you use for the interior of that project?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Buck Brown harness from Wickett-Craig

[@mikeswaim2670]

So I guess that your glue mix also seals the edge? No wax needed?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Correct.

[@timothyanselmi4091]

Where do you get the sanding drum/wheel for the machine?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

It comes with the machine. Leather Machine Co sells other grits as well.

[@gabecampbell9262]

Sup Aaron great job on the leather edges how come you sand it and did not lick the leather just asking Aaron did you use edge magic on your leather Aaron? have a great day today Aaron and Janie Sue and Marsha and doc My friends!🇺🇸

[@makersleathersupply1220]

[@JBSLeathercrafts]

One question... Do you ever use Edge Kote?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Not a fan of edge kote

[@johnnyjohnston2401]

What kind of Elmer’s glue

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Just regular ol school glue

[@jenkins1979]

What grade sanding wheel or sand paper do we use

[@makersleathersupply1220]

220 is the wheel I start with

[@davidjenks7392]

How do you choose when to use the Elmer's mix versus tokenole versus Ron's?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

@@davidjenks7392 Honestly, I use whichever is closest to me when I need it. Ha ha ha

[@heatherh4975]

Glad I didn’t share a desk with you in grade school 😂

[@makersleathersupply1220]

I'd have been very respectful with my boogie placement. I'm a gentleman. Ha ha ha
