cleaning stretched fur

[kvernum3]

Hey guys,

I have a question, I have around 20 coyotes stretched and ready to sell, My question is that I have a few that have some blood stain still on them.( I learned my lesson, i need to clean them a bit better ).. But are there any good methods to getting the last bit of blood off my pelts?.. They are off the stretchers and ready to sell... Thanks.

mitch.

Yup I always wash mine two or 3 times by hand with laundry detergent prior to stretching. Also rinse them in fabric softener.

Even so I have had a few that had some blood in the fur. What I did was I combed the blood out and it worked well since it was dry. You could also maybe try wetting your fingertips and just try to work it out a little at a time, then comb it again.

Let us know how it goes.

you can use a mild peroxide on the chest fur. but it should just comb out.
