    I have a customer that has a moose that hung in a cabin foe several years.The hair has faded from the sun.What can I do to repair the color in the faded area?I am not sure if just painting will work.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.This poor moose looks like a zebra in one side.I do not have pictures,but do need help.Thanks

    Not yet, I am proud of the little Gray I have, but I don't see why it wouldn't work on a Moose, you would have to rehydrate the hair and get it soft, it might be brittle being Sun baked. And you would need more then one bottle. I'd try it if they had a color that matched. Or get a fresh cape and do over.

    Hionis hair and fur dye, I know Jonas sells it and I think most of the suppliers do. Works great.
