How can i iron out my cowhide rug?

Question

I made the mistake of wet shampooing my cowhide rug, then hug it out to dry but over time the edges have curled up, does anyone know how I can smooth them out?

Answer 1

Take it to a professional

don't try to do it yourself or you may end up ruining it

and it'll smell weird

Answer 2

Yep to much water.

try applying lotion to the skin side and wipe off excess then roll edges across across table or fencing to straighten and reapply as needed.

lotion with lanolin might be best... nothing expensive is necessary.

just wipe off excess.

good luck ..

Answer 3

Natural Air Is The Best Dependent On whether In your area
