Stay-Put Hide Paste™

Stay Put Hide Paste ™ is an aqueous polymeric formulation that has been tested by several leading Taxidermy manufacturers and proven to be a superior hide paste to any currently available on the market. Stay- Put Hide Paste™ has the characteristics of a dextrin paste which allows long working time and the adhesion characteristics of an epoxy and dries clear. It will adhere wet leather to urethane foam manikins and many different types of plastics. It is of medium-to-heavy consistency, and completely environmentally/user safe. It contains no dextrin. In addition to being a hide paste, it is versatile enough to be used for creating water scenery, nose pad detail, “plumping up” bird feet, creating wrinkle detail and adhering rocks, soil and plants in dioramas.
