If anybody ever does a european deer mount or wants a coyote skull try some oxyclean laundry detergent the dry powder type. this stuff is awesome several years ago i did a couple hog skulls one i boiled with bleach and dawn dish soap and it came out alright i had to degrease when i was done and it just never did come out very good. the second one i did in oxyclean and only oxyclean this one turned out awsome that stuff is unreal i did a bobcat skull yesterday and used oxyclean and it looks great no degreaseing the skull or bleaching or anything just oxyclean. Just give it a try this stuff is great for skulls.

u should put a sealer on it like biobond when your done. they will start to crack after awhile especially the teeth.

I agree biobond is about the best and really helps they might come out great no matter what way you do them but you need to seal them or all that hard work will go to waste. When i worked for Sportsmens Taxidery Studio in EGF we used Biobond on all skulls we did ourselves

Lyonch,
Are you sure about skull three?Otter?It sure looks a lot like my coyote partner.So close I'd better call him to make sure he's OK.
Also,where can a guy get Biobond and/or is there an easier to obtain sealing product for just a couple small jobs?
