Can I dry and ship deer capes tanned with EZ-100. Will they rehydrate alright? Thanks.

Yes! I do it often. I dont like to tie up my freezer space - so - I dry them and later rehydrate them to mount.
However - whomever you ship them to - include a note of how to safely rehydrate them. Tell them that for every 1 Gl. of Water - add 4 Ozs. of Salt. Then soak the cape for 30 minutes, remove, drain for 5 minutes and then bag it in a plastic garbage bag and tie it off. Place it in the Frig overnight and the next day it should be ready to prep and mount.
Thanks for answering my question. I will be sure to include your rehydrating instructions. Thanks
