Very Nice Jason. Mounts are not bad either. LMAO

Thanks for posting. So tell us what you liked and/or didn’t like about our new product. The mounts look very clean, did you follow the directions exactly or did you add any steps of your on?

On a scale of 1 to 10. With 1 being horrible how would you rate this product?

Just looking for feed back on what we can do to make it better.

Thanks D, I’m no photographer thats for sure but I was real happy on how the deer came out. This was my first experience with Taxi-Tan 581, but it’s not the last thats for sure. You want feedback, well here is my honest opinion of Taxi-Tan 581.

1. It works!!!
2. it produces a soft very workable cape!
3. Very little to even no shrinkage!
4. no odor!
5. easy to use!
6. Easy clean up!
7. Shaves like a dream!
8. leaves hair with a nice sheen!
9. no problem at all with any loose hair!
10. Cape does not dry hard as a rock but has a dry tan feel to it (if thats makes since)
11. Decreased my hands on time!!

Overall D, I give Taxi-Tan 581 a solid 10 out of 10! reasons being is, it don’t smell, easy to use and mix, no ph checking,decreased my hands on time, shaves great, produces a soft cape, and very little babysitting while mount is drying. This stuff works!

Now this is how I used the Taxi-Tan 581, I did mix the TT-581 according to the direction, 5 gallons of water 8 pounds of salt, and 16oz of TT-581. I then took 2 raw capes and turned the ears eye’s and nose, I then removed the big chunks of meat. I did not however go into any detail as far as the fleshing goes I spent about 15 mins turning everything and removing some red meat. I then washed as much blood as I could out of the capes under some cold water and placed the capes into the TT-581 mix. After 1 day I removed the capes and let them drip dry for about 30 mins. I then shaved the capes on the machine and this is when I noticed I was on to something. I spent about 10 mins per cape and placed the capes back into the TT-581 mix for 2 more days. After 3 days total in the TT-581 mix I took the capes out and put them straight into the neautralization bath for 30 mins. I hung the capes for an hour or so just to drain the water out and then did the detail fleshing around the nose, lips and eye area’s. Once I was happy with my fleshing I washed the capes one at a time in apple scented dish washing liquid and salt water.

You guys at Head Quarters Supply have a great product that was super easy to use, produced a great product, and actually decreased my hands on time drastically.

Ken, not sure how you have been tanning in the past but, don’t hesitate to use TT-581. It works great and took a lot of time off of my cape prep.
