Even if it doesn't slip the fur hot water takes the natural oils out of the fur and leaves it looking "dead". The natural oils give it that lustrous look. I know some guys use a conditioner.
Yup always know your doing stuff right when you get those toplot awards. I have them for mink, muskrat and fox. Many years ago I sent into NAFA and they sent me a fur handling catalog. It had instructions for handling each type of fur barer and the stretcher sizes they preferred. When I tanned my hides last year I used fine sawdust and mineral spirits to give the fur a little more "life."
