Good Stuff. I personally like to send my capes to the tannery. Not sure if you're thinking about using it yourself or your taxidermist, but if a taxidermist has been tanning hides for a while, and you've seen quality tanned hides that he's had for a while, then I wouldn't be worried about the taxidermist using it. Tanning has a lot of factors other than just the tanning agent, which makes a good tan. Good luck.

A nice young lady named Amy uses ez-tan, I think. You can get some tanning tips on her site www.amystaxidermy.com.
Maybe she has used Krowtan too. Email her and ask. She has a link to ask questions on her site.

No parables, DD, you just arent taking the hint. Ive explained it all to you already. Now that nobody else is saying either, I just figured youd get it by now. You already know why I cant say.
