Taxidermy Products FAQ
What makes Advanced Tanning Solutions taxidermy products different from standard tanning supplies?
Advanced Tanning Solutions formulas are engineered for hair-on taxidermy, hair-off applications, and the new Tan-a-Buckskin preservation. From tanning agents and degreasers to swabbing oils and finishing products, each formula is designed to protect hide integrity, prevent acid rot, and maintain lifelike softness, texture, and color for lasting display quality.
Can I use Advanced Tanning Solutions taxidermy products for different species?
Yes. These products are suitable for small game, large mammals, furs, and exotic species (like snakeskins), delivering consistent results across all hide types.
Do I need professional equipment to use these products?
No. Advanced Tanning Solutions products work in professional shops and smaller, at-home setups. Standard tanning and drying procedures suffice for high-quality results without commercial drums or tumblers.
What products should I start with for basic taxidermy tanning?
Start with a reliable tanning agent, degreaser, and swabbing or drumming oil. Advanced Tanning Solutions has curated a core collection covering cleaning, tanning, and finishing needs for natural, durable mounts.
Are Advanced Tanning Solutions taxidermy products compatible with each other?
Yes. All formulas are developed to work together, ensuring consistent performance and balanced results throughout tanning and finishing.
Do your products help prevent hide slip or hair loss?
Hair slippage is due to bacteria growth which is often caused by mishandling of hides and skins. Starting with a well taken care of hide and using the tanning products and procedures as recommended, will help prevent hair slippage.
Are these products safe for use in a small workshop or home environment?
Yes. When used as directed, Advanced Tanning Solutions products are safe for home or small-shop use. Standard safety precautions—gloves, apron, eye protection, and ventilation—are recommended.
