Is Glycerine and D. Alcohol an ok way to go tanning a snake skin? Or is there a better way of doing it?

i used to go the 50/50 method, but after talking to the guys on here i have now begun using a snakeskin tan from van dykes and rittles
i like it better. the glycerin/dna did a good job but is a little on the greasy side.

the bitterness of poor quality far outweighs the sweetness of low price.

For snakes I actually like the Snake Tan by Authentic Taxidermy Supply.  If it's good enough for World Champion Ben Haden, it's definitely good enough for little ole me.   Wink
