I only use the clone tool for a bit of final cleanup. I use "replace color" as the principal tool. I find this better than desaturating alone, because I can match it exactly to the background. You simply choose the color of the fringe with the eyedropper. Go to replace color. Set fuzziness to include all the fringe area, then use the eyedropper again to choose the background as the replacement color. This works perfectly as long as the fringe color isn't also part of your image, and the "replace color" box lets you see what areas are going to be changed. If necessary, I select or mask the area.
