RE: Euro mounts
Bleach is generally a bad thing, in addition to the things already mentioned, it can turn the skull yellow also. When boiling be careful of the bosses on your antlers, keep them out of the water or it can discolor the bottom of them. A neat trick here is to make a "Y" out of a piece of rope and tie it to each side of the antlers, adjusting where you tie it untill the head balances correctly in the water. The skull will be hanging from the rope, not balanceing on the rim of the pot, if this makes sense. Makes it where you can adjust it just right. Put some Cascade automatic dishwasher soap in the boil water, it has enzymes in it designed to eat food, it really helps break the tissue down during boiling, and helps get rid of the grease/oil that boils out of the tissue. Pressure washer works good, but be careful, you can tear a skull up also.
