Default Turkey mounting ?

I mounted my first gobbler this week... I've been wanting to do this for some time now... I bought a few video's from WASCO on mounting the wild turkey... One was on mounting the bird gobbling up on the limb and another is from cally morris on mounting a strutting gobbler. I also bougfht the breakthrough book on bird taxidermy... So I had some pretty good info on the mounting part

the one part I really don't have a lot of info on is the skinning and praserving... I used borax...

What I want to know is what do you do to the cape after you skin it out to make all the feathers look good again???
