Coffeeman Report post Posted May 21, 2022 Just got my hair on mule deer hide back from the tannery, it came back in a box and its a little lumpy and he hair doesn’t want to sit right. I’m not sure what the best way make this look better. Just time out of the box? Is there a better way to orient the hair? Right now looks like a cat that got petted backwards… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weldor Report post Posted June 26, 2022 You can soak it with Mount Medic (from a spray bottle) and use a stainless wire brush. That way you don't have to worry about the leather . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
