2 Purpose of Curing Curing is done to protect freshly skinned hides from a ack by bacteria. There are many methods to follow. Remember, however, that a delay in curing will result in disappointment: it takes only six hours for bacteria to destroy the root hair, causing hair slip. Method Skin the animal as soon as posisble. Remove all excess fat, blood and meat from the hide. Wash o ffall blood and dirt. If possible, soak the hide for a minimum of 3 hours, or overnight, in a saturated salt solu on, together with a bactericide (De ol). The ra o is +/- 20 kg salt and 50 ml bactericide per 100l water. As you remove the hide from the solu on, open and fla en the hide on a clean surface of salt with the flesh facing upwards. Cover the hide liberally with salt. Hints It is important, as a guideline, to use the same weight of salt as the weight of the hide. The hide must then lie in the salt for at least three days, a er which me the hide should be dried out. You may also dry your hide in the sun a er the sal ng process. The sooner the hide is dehydrated, the be er. If you do not have me to do this, then salt the hide with salt, roll it up, refrigerate if possible, and dry it out at des na on ASAP. Do Not Do not drag the animal or leave it in the sun a er it has been shot. Do not salt hide that has already started to dehydrate. Soak the hide in a strong salt solu on overnight, and then salt the hide. Do not leave blood, fat or flesh on the hide (salt does not penetrate fat). Do not store in a plas c bag (preferably a hessian bag), except for transporta on in a cooler container. Important Buffalo Skins all get sided (they are cut in half along the backbone), in order to process them through our spli ng machines. If the skin is not sided, it will move unevenly through the spli ng machine and will get severely damaged. This has been a common pra ce for many years. The same will apply to Hippo, Elephant and Rhino skins, which will also get sided and pannelled.
