Default RE: anyone ever bury a skull for a european mount?

I've done a couple by boiling it, picking off the loose stuff, boiling it a bit more, then immediately taking it to a carwash. The hot soapy high pressure wand cleans the tissue from the bone nicely. Didn't have to bleach them either. Just make sure to wear your rainwear at the carwash as you'll get pretty wet when you blast out the sinuses and brain cavity. I'd estimate a mount takes2 hours tops from start to finish including skinning.
