A few days a go someone said they used something on a cape to make it puff up or get bigger. I just thawed out a green cape that looks like it may be a little short for a shoulder deer mount.They got it from one of the suppliers if someone can remember the name or the stuff and the supplier I would like to know and if you used it did it work?THANK YOU

that was probably jen's post on Shrink-Tonic, which she called skin tonic in her post, from WHITETAIL DESIGNER SYSTEMS. It is a relaxer, and usually will allow the cape to return to only what it was to begin with. Post rut bucks may return to what they were in neck size just a few days earlier, but it will do nothing to lengthen a cape.
Iam hopeing it is long enough I was just looking for a back up plan in case it isnt may have to have to cut the form off a little hope not thanks again
May have to use a half-shoulder form or alter your form. You might also be able to order a slightly smaller form and get enough skin to pull down where you need it.
