In this article, we will explain the cause of this black line and provide solutions to prevent it from happening.

Causes of the Thin Black Line

The thin black line on your furniture edging strip is most likely caused by one of the following reasons:
Melamine impregnation: Melamine is a resin used to impregnate the paper of the edging strip. When the impregnation process is not done properly, it can leave a thin black line on the surface of the strip.
Glue residue: Glue is used to bond the edging strip to the furniture. If the glue is not applied evenly or if it is not allowed to dry completely, it can leave a thin black line on the surface of the strip.
Dirt or debris: Dirt or debris can get trapped between the edging strip and the furniture. This can cause a thin black line to appear on the surface of the strip.

Preventing the Thin Black Line

There are a few things you can do to prevent the thin black line from appearing on your furniture edging strip:
Make sure the melamine impregnation process is done properly. This means using the correct amount of melamine and ensuring that the paper is impregnated evenly.
Apply the glue evenly and allow it to dry completely. Do not use too much glue, as this can cause it to ooze out from the edges of the strip.
Clean the surface of the furniture before applying the edging strip. This will help to prevent dirt or debris from getting trapped between the strip and the furniture.

Solutions to Remove the Thin Black Line

If you do find a thin black line on your furniture edging strip, there are a few things you can do to remove it:
Use a sharp knife to carefully scrape away the black line. Be careful not to damage the surface of the strip.
Apply a thin layer of wood filler to the black line and allow it to dry. Once the filler is dry, sand it smooth.
Use a touch-up pen to match the color of the edging strip and apply it to the black line.

By following these tips, you can prevent the thin black line from appearing on your furniture edging strip. If you do find a black line, you can use the solutions provided to remove it.
