20 mule team borax

[Tail Feathers]

All I've ever used too.

[HARDCORE]

It's good stuff and it works.

My wife always tries to hide it from me come spring, this year she was too late.

I put it in my truck late December.

I've used it for years.

Yep

Stink,
They are talking about using it as a preservative, not for washing pickles.

Oh...never mind.

I'm sure that Bora-Safe is faster/better because it probably contains more borax and less/no soap.

I think you are correct.  The catalog says it has something added to preserve.

All I know is the difference in effect is pretty remarkable, I can tell what fans/beards have been done in Borax, and those done with Bora-Safe.....

I did a complete skin back in the 80's and it's still in one piece hanging in my garage..guess it last a long time..

FYI.....I read somewhere if you have spiders in your basement, or elsewhaere for that matter, to put an open container of Mule Team Borax out and it keep them out.

I use to cure my beard ends, and the bases for my fans.

Where can you find it??

You can find it at Walmart in the laundry detergent section.

I use a borax and non-iodized salt mixture for my beards, spurs, and fans.

ziploc bag in my travel box all the time, most taxidermist use it everyday, some use other concoctions added to it, there are commercial preservatives available and i know they are a little better, but for the average Joe, the 20 mule team is all you need
