I got a shipment of fur back from sleepy creek tannery. What do you guys do
To bring its luster back after being stuffed in a small box for shipping?
Thanks

I just give mine a good shake and they fluff right back up. Let em hang a day or two and they seem to straighten out. Here's a coyote I got back from them last week. It was about a 6 week turnaround with the rush option.

It's a little narrow behind the shoulders because I had to sew up a couple holes from my deer rifle. But you can't even tell the holes are there anymore.

Cowboy magic, show sheen from farm stores...or spray a cloth with Pledge and wipe it on, dont spray directly on the fur

Maybe I’ll toss em in the dryer for a little bit and hang them and try and little pledge on a rag.
The tan turned out pretty good, not moyle good but good enough I suppose.
