I've do two projects now that I've used fiebings edge kote on and both times it comes off when wet. I burnish the edge then apply the black edge kote...am I doin this right or what's the deal?

Do you mean the EdgeKote beads up on the burnished edge? If so, I'm having the same problem and would be curious about the answers you get. Sorry I can't help you.

I switched to Dura Edge and it seems better. Only two colors and the brown is fairly dark. Wished they had dome lighter brown colors.

I had the exact same problem. Definitely not a fan of Edge Kote. Now I use Fiebings USMC black dye. I dye first then follow the rest of Bob's (hidepounder) directions on dyeing. I finish by applying Tan Kote and then Wyosheen. I have not had any rubbing off since I have switched to this method. Hope that helps.
