A water-based gel for finishing the cut edges of waterproof webbing. It gives the edge volume, a rubberized surface and a matte finish, so the white core no longer shows through.
Say goodbye to raw webbing edges where a white core shows through, easily gets dirty, and ruins the overall impression. With Girba Nubio, your edges will match the webbing material in color and will look as if they were designed that way from the start.
The color can also be adjusted. Once the Nubio layer dries, apply Angelus acrylic paint to create a cohesive look that matches the webbing color. Recommended shades can be easily found for each waterproof webbing.

Workshop opinion
Pavla Nováková
A specification can tell you plenty. The workbench tells you the rest, so that is where I test it.
This gel for finishing the edges of waterproof webbings pleasantly surprised me. I’ll admit, when I first used it, I wondered if I could even apply it well enough to make it look good. It takes a bit of practice and patience, no denying that. But once you get the hang of it, it becomes a routine you’ll quickly come to appreciate. And the result? The edge looks like a natural part of the webbing – no exposed textiles, no distracting cut edges. Just a clean, smooth, and pleasant-to-touch surface.
What I love about it is its simplicity. The gel has just the right consistency to be easily applied, even with an ordinary awl. You don’t need to buy any special tools – whatever you already have in your workshop will do. And if you want to perfect the edges, try adding a layer of Angelus paint. This combination turns a plain webbing into something you’ll be proud of.
My tip: If the gel seems too runny, pour the desired amount into a small dish for immediate use. Let it "vent" for about 10 minutes at around 18°C (higher temperatures will shorten the time). Its consistency will thicken, making application easier and preventing it from dripping too much.
I won’t say it’s for everyone – it requires some care and patience. But if quality and precision are your priorities, this gel should be a staple in your toolkit. It already has a permanent place in mine.
