Fur Oil is a light-weight swabbing oil formulated from a blend of natural and synthetic oils and polymers, with added antioxidants for long-term stability. It is used after tanning with Pickle Tan A-21 and is specifically suited for smaller fur bearing mammal skins. These fur skins are thinner and require a lighter oil.
This swabbing oil is also included in our Tan-a-Fur DIY tanning kit.
This oil produces a soft, supple, and stretchy leather while permanently fixing to the leather fibers to prevent wash-out and oil migration. Fur Oil allows hides and skins to be easily rehydrated, making it an excellent choice for taxidermy tanning applications where flexibility and stretch are critical.
Antioxidants are added to prevent oxidation, providing excellent shelf life and consistent performance. Fur Oil leaves a clean, non-oily feel to the tanned leather and contains no foul odors. It is recommended for small fur-bearing mammals such as rabbit, fox, raccoon, coyote, wolf, and similar skins.
