How long can I expect to be able to keep a Auto tanned coyote skin in the refrigerater? I tanned two today and would like to leave them in the frig. and order the materials tomorrow to mount as soon as I recieve the forms. These are both prime skins well taken care of. Thanks Jack F.

Just toss them in the freezer.

They thaw pretty quickly. I never put anything in the frig. Auto-taned deer capes will thaw in a couple hours. Once you get the forms in just lay the skin out the night before anf it will be fine.

I still dont take any chances by leaving them to thaw in a plastic bag.


Out of the Frig - into the Freezer!

Get them out of the Frig and into the Freezer! Or - you may lose them! The Freezer is a much safer place to keep them. When you freeze them however - fold them - dont roll! That way they will freeze faster and likewise thaw faster!


Thanks a bunch!
