WET TAN 

Our hides have a nice stretch, are clean, and have very little shrinkage when drying on the form. Hides that are wet tanned undergo our normal tanning process. All hides are pickled, shaved, etc., hides are finished and packaged with the customer information. They are sent to you after being frozen. For mounting purposes, these hides do not need to be rehydrated, just thaw them out and you’re set to work.

RE-HYDRATING

To Rehydrate Dry Tan hides for mounting use 4 ounces of salt per gallon of luke warm water. Soak hide for approximately 1 hour in salt water solution. Drip drain and place hide in a plastic bag at room temperature to sweat overnight. Ready to be either mounted or frozen the next day. Please note that adding the salt helps to prevent acid swell.
