This Gum Tragacanth is excellent for achieving smooth, professional-looking edges. I’ve been using it on belts and small leather pieces, and it leaves a clean finish with no fraying or rough edges. It’s easy to apply, dries quickly, and has no strong smell. Like every Fiebing’s product, the quality shows from the very first use. Perfect for giving your leather projects that polished final touch. Highly recommended!
