It is always better to flesh it once it is thawed out the first time, but in most cases it won't hurt if you refreeze it. The only time I would not do this is if the cape is a iffy/risky cape to begin with.
Becareful when doing this. Yes it can work but everytime you take a green hide out of the freezer and thaw it and then put it back in, can and will cause bacteria growth. There is a product called stop-rot. I would try this out if your going to do that.
