just rehydrate the salted skin in plain water, until softened this can
take overnite. If they are really hard to rehydrate then use 1/2 oz of
Relax R to each gallon of water. Once rehydrated then go to your
Pre Tan #110, use approx 2 lb of salt per gallon of water and 3 oz of
Pre Tan 110 to each gallon leave skins up to 14 hours.
I would be glad to also send you a free technical hand book too.
