I posted this in the taxidermy forum but it doesn't look like too much posting going on over there.
Will a pressuer washer like some suggest useing after boiling blow the skull apart and knock the teeth out never to be found again or is a garden hose betterand do you delute the 40% peroxide or use it full strenthto whiten the skull after drying?

after boiling everything should be loose enough that a garden hose should be just fine. As for the peroxide part i couldn't tell ya, i didn't use any on mine.

i put a little dishwashing liquid in my water before i boil. it helps to keep the fat from cooking into the skull, and discoloring it, i also use a turkey cooker. I paint mine but not just matte white, i like to get the airbrush out, and give it a nice natural look with some tans and light browns

A pressure washer is too much, a 40% peroxide mix is good, full strength will make it even more brittle by drying it out, the peroxide will also take care of any smell from thelittle peices of trash left behind thats trapped in the cavities.
