Years ago I used a bicarbonate soda and kerosene mix, rubbed into the hide every 2 days for 3 weeks. I can't remember the quantities but the mix was like a soft mush, not too moist. First nail the hide flesh side up on a large board. Scrape off all fat and then rub it the mixture. Make sure you go right to the edges. Each day you'll feel the hide softening. After about 3 weeks, if the hide feels supple, scrape off the build up of bicarb then wash the hide. Soapy water's fine for this. Take out the nails and remove the hide from the board. Hang in the air to dry.
