Members JayEhl Posted January 13, 2021 Members Report Posted January 13, 2021 I'm still a noob. Could you explain what the uniters heatable edge paint is and how it works and why I would use that instead of just edge Kote? Quote
Members jcuk Posted January 13, 2021 Members Report Posted January 13, 2021 Is the customer trying to hide the the fact that he has money in his wallet, so he does not have to get the next round in. Nice work by the way. JCUK Quote
Members Avant1 Posted January 13, 2021 Members Report Posted January 13, 2021 Nice piece of work there and beautiful execution. Well done! Quote

So with heatable edge paint youre able to work, smooth and move the paint around after its dried with the use of a fileteuse or in my case i use the side of my edge creaser heated up with a candle. admittedly i have very limited experience with edge kote because early on i learned that higher end makers use edge paint to finish there products. i used some edge kote maybe once on the first or second project and got really bad results so i never used it again.

Members JayEhl Posted January 13, 2021 Members Report Posted January 13, 2021 Okay cool, thanks for the explanation. I'll have to do some more research but its still a hobby and my bar is still pretty low. Quote
