    Not sure about with that method but I wouldn't want to have one out more than a day of being thawed, mby in an emergency in the fridge and finish a 2nd day.

    I've left capes tanned with EZ-100 in garbage bags in the fridge for up to a week with no problems.

    Had a cape in fridge (thawed) for 2 days and took out to prep. Ordered form but no time to mount, froze, Took back out of freezer last weekend, sat in fridge for a week, just mounted Friday, no problem. As long as cape is not soaking wet, it will be fine.

    A week in the fridge with a quality tan is no problem.
