I used the peroxide that comes in a jell.Just put the skull in a plastic shoe box with the peroxide and use a small paint brush to get to places that are to high.

I tried this last year and it turned out great. Thought somebody else would like to try it.

1. Put your latex gloves on & Cut the head off at base of neck
2. Start skinning and removing anything you can get to
3. Careful not to gouge or scrape the skull or rack
4. Remove eyes, ears, toungue (everything!)
5. The more you leave the more work later
6. Cut with a serated saw a line going back following the plane of the upper teeth
7. Remove the lower jaw after sawing and anything below
8. All you have left is the Rack andskull including the upper jaw
with as little meat as possible left
9. If your cut was good you could remove some brain tissue( be careful)
10.Get a turkey frier pan or half barrel of some type and fill with water
IMPORTANT( you probably will not want to use this pan for food again)
11. Use your propane burner to boil the water
12. After water is boiling adda box of rock salt and some dish soap All you need is regular salt and add hydrogen peroxide inpot
13. Put skull in water leaving the rack out of the boil To help with this wrap bottom of rack with aluminum foil
14. Boil for3 to 4 hours Or longer if meat remains rather than 15.
15.When done, take skull to car wash and power off any remaining debris Not the best idea in my experience
16. Be careful especially around the nose area and cartilage
17. Dry with a cloth No need to dry
18. Wrap tightly,only the skull (not rack) in strips of an old bed sheet I like to use cotton that you can buy in strips from Wal-Mart, they can be used multiple times
19. Soak the cloth in Hydrogen Peroxide (don't get on rack! Use foil)
20. Put in a trash bag and let set for 72 hours I like to use brownie pan about 2'x6" or so with sides a few inches high
21. Unwrap your masterpiece ( It's just like Christmas)
