im losing my edge. its peeling off little by little from under the binding. when it comes out i cut off the bent piece with a dremel (rotory tool) and sand the end down into the sidewall. no matter what i do, the edge keeps on coming back out and peeling further down the ski. ive tried krazy glue, epoxy, noting will help. i just need to stabalize the condition of my ski before i have no more edge to work with. how do u fix this?

The exact same thign happened on my old Skogens after I cracked an edge then used them on dryslope. I did the same as you and cut off the bad edge plus another centimeter or so (between the next two edge mounts). Then I grinded down the corners of the part that I'd just cut to 45 degrees so that they wouldn't catch when skiing, and filled the gap with epoxy putty. They've been fine since that. Give that a shot, and try cutting the edge off quite a bit past where it stops peeling up.
