Leather finishing is the process of treating and enhancing leather after it has been tanned. This step involves applying various coatings and treatments to improve the leather's appearance, durability, and resistance to water and stains. Common techniques include dyeing, polishing, and applying protective finishes. The finishing process can also involve embossing or printing patterns onto the leather surface, giving it a unique look. Different types of leather, such as full-grain or top-grain, may require specific finishing methods to achieve the desired quality and texture. Proper finishing is essential for the longevity and aesthetic appeal of leather products.
