I have a cape that was liqua tanned. It is now in the freezer.
After I thaw it to mount do I need to tumble it?
I do not have a tumbler and the wife might get a little upset if I put it in the dryer. I did research the archives and did not find the answer, unless I missed it.
Is tumbling necessary or is there an alternative?
Thanks for any advice.

no, i have been using liqua tan for 7 years and i've never tumbled a deer hide that i was mounting. remember, your hide is wet and you don't want to dry it totally out which is what a tumbler would do. good luck!
Though I like to use a dryer help dry the hair out quicker not the skin. After you wash it just take a few towels and towel dry it like you do to your hair. In my case there not to much to dry LOL.
Thanks for your input.
It is very much appreciated. Have a Merry Christmas.
