artisticwhitetails Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Re: Stop Rot ? I use it on every cape that comes in. Ive had problems in the past with slippage, especially in the arm pits, lower brisket areas, and epidurmal slippage around the eyes. The warm Bama temps makes it tough to avoid. I apply the stoprot to the problem areas as the speciman is thawing out. After thawing and caping, I invert the skin and and give the whole cape a heavy brushing of stoprot. Remove the big chunks of meat, then salt for 12 hours. I then do a final fleshing with draw knife and beam, re-salt for another 12 hours. By using fans and a dehumidifier, I can have a cape almost rock hard within 36 hours. I have had zero slippage since using the stop rot.

rockefeller66 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Re: Stop Rot ? I have heard of it but never used it, I am a rookie in the business and only caped out 4 deer with the help of my brother and haven't had a problem that I needed it. I guess I would try it if I were you, like you said, can't hurt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
