You do your own tanning I take it? What sort of costs are involved with that?


No--i send mine to Moyle Mink for tanning. I just make sure i get enuf for them to cover tanning, then some.

I guess I'll have to start asking around here in VA. We have plenty of 'yotes.

This article showed up in my inbox today. Pretty straightforward tanning process. Haven't tried it myself, but the article is reprinted from 2001, so it must have some merit.

I like that and am going to try it. Ive read other reeipes that were more costly and labor intense and left a tanning solution behind that I wouldnt know what to do with it where I live
