If this video was helpful please be sure to subscribe, it’s free!! Thanks y’all!
I usually rap the antler bases with Saran Wrap and duck tape before doing this so it ensures you don’t get any on them
I learn something everytime I watch one of your videos. Thanks for all you do.
Those came out awesome!👌
thanks for sharing those tips really enjoy your videos keep them coming Great job
Awesome ...best info I've seen so far..... results are amazing...Thanks for sharing!
By far the best way I've ever found to whiten. And for so little effort!
This is the Best video I've watched on how to whiten a skull 💀! I'll be going with this method. Thanks bud!
Absolutely!
You have the most common sense taxidermy channel I have found, and I have surfed a LOT of them. I have two skulls macerating now and I have used the peroxide but never mixed with BW2.. I will do this for these two...
What I REALLY, REALLY would like to see you put out is a video of your finish work process on full mounts. Airbrush work, colors, eye shading etc..
Thanks for the content your putting out.. Very useful.
I try to keep it simple because I ran into the same issues when I was learning. Everything seemed to be over complicated. I'll try and put out a finishing video soon!
@thecedarridgechronicles thanks! You've probly mentioned before, but you mount the deer while the hide is still damp?
Yes, but I towel dry inside and out. The glue makes better adhesion with a slightly damp hide. The trick is to bag it until the glue begins to set then work in all the details 👍
@@thecedarridgechronicles thanks for that! I dunno how I ended up commenting on a different video and comment. Thanks for still replying 😄 🤣
😂 I didn't even notice. I get notifications just like texts hahaha
I use that same stuff on mine. Didn't know about the seran wrap, thanks for the info.
It makes a huge difference!
Thank you Sir. This is the most helpful skull whitening video I"ve found on the entire Tube.
Very Good Video on skull whitening.
I also put mine in front of a heat source after wrapped. HEAT activates the peroxide better
👍🏻 same way I've been whitening mine for a long time now
Great advice
Looks really nice, I'm going to try that method. What do you put on the antlers when you finished the mount?
I don't put anything on them
Thanks! Super helpful- I could’ve told you about the serán wrap from bleaching hair! Lol
😂
What do you use to degrease them with before whitening? Ive whitened mine same exact whitener recipe youre using in video, but later yellowing started showing since i unfortunately did not degrease correctly.. ive tried using oxi but noticed it was really softening the skull and left a small hole in one skull from softening too much 🙁 love your videos tho! Just subscribed to your channel, big fan of your work and awesome videos! Very good on detail and info so i thank you for that!
Once they are completely done macerating, I use dawn dishwashing liquid and water with an aquarium heater overnight to degrease, sterilize, and fumigate
Liked your video, I have two old mule deer mounts that have hung in cabin for 20yrs, sculls very yellow and brownish. Can I move straight to this procedure after a rinse to restore. They were never super white. Thank you.
Yes you can
CLEAN!
I use a product called Aquasilk its a pool shock oxidizer from Leslie's pool supplies 27% hydrogen peroxide mix one gallon to three gallons water bring it to a boil and shut it off works great If you don't mind me asking what do you charge for a deer euro
Nice. I've never seen that before
I'll have to check it out! $80 without a plaque
It's expensive, $30 a gallon plus shipping. It can be hard on the skull if simmered to long.
Nice job
Awesome video, any problem with the peroxide foaming up around the antlers bases under the saran wrap?
No, but I have them wrapped pretty tight underneath
Definitely think was my mistake. Thanks for the reply and video. Great content.
I'm cheap, so I'm gonna try mixing the 40 cream with baking soda to get the consistency. Maybe I have to let it sit longer. but I don't fee like buying the BW powder.
Awesome let me know how that works
Thanks for the tip! Are the skulls dry when you apply the mix?
Yes completely
Can you clarify - Are you adding the BW2 powder to the Salon Care 40 cream until you get that consistency? Thanks! Great video. I do a lot of my own skulls but haven't found a whitening method that I like. This looks loos like it might be it! Thanks again!
Yes that is correct
Yes that is correct
@@thecedarridgechronicles Thanks!
Good deal
Hey bud...i do alot of these...just tape the antlers up with black electrical tape...works 😊
I use peroxide and BW2. I don’t get anything on the antlers 👍
✅Thanks Bud
After watching this video, I ordered the exact same products off Amazon to whiten a hog skull I European mounted for my son. Mixed it to a similar consistency and painted on the head and wrapped it in plastic wrap let sit for 7 days. Unfortunately it turned out a dual white. Have you ever had this happen? I'm thinking I didn't apply it thick enough on the skull. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you
It is very possible there is still some grease in the skull. It is very common on hog skulls. It will cause the skull to appear an ivory color rather than white because the grease won't allow much peroxide penetration. A heat gun will dissolve small spots, and even leaving it a while to dry out might even get rid of it if it's not too thick. You can try more peroxide again and it will not hurt anything if you want to first and just see if it helps.
@@thecedarridgechronicles Thank you sir, appreciate the great content you put out also.
Is it better to stain the antlers before you bleach the skull??
I would do any staining afterwards in case you accidentally bleach the base
Can you please do a video on attaching the skull to a plaque?

😅
The sinus cartilage looks cool, but I heard someone claim that they turn yellow over time. I wonder how true that is, particularly if you do a good job de-greasing and whitening.
If it's an inevitable thing, I'll probably opt to remove them when I eventually do one.
It can yellow if it isn’t degreased properly, but also a shot of white paint will cover it and be unnoticeable inside the cavity too 👍
@@thecedarridgechronicles Yeah, that's an idea. I'm not a general fan of paint, but it shouldn't be too noticeable in that area, if you get the correct shade.
@Gutslinger yeah I avoid painting mine at all costs unless I have attached a cap to a different skull or it is a badly stained dead head but the sinuses and inside the brain cavity can be sprayed with a matte bone white and is unnoticeable
Depends on smokers, dust, decreased enough. I just rewhiten or clean with a basic over the counter peroxide
You could just use semi-gloss white spray paint that's what I do to all of mine it makes it look exactly the same
That’s fine if the client doesn’t mind it painted. Definitely easier.
I only have the 40 volume cream. Will that work without the powder and do i have to have heat?
It will work but might take a couple applications. Heat helps whiten, but isn’t necessary
@@thecedarridgechronicles hey thanks!
So do you use the care 40 or the BW2?
I mix the 40 volume peroxide and the BW2 to make a paste
So I just did you method on two heads and one of the heads still looks a little brown on the top. Have you ever had this happen? Can I go ahead and degrease it again and repeat the process?Thanks
You can. Mix the paste a little thicker with the powder and put some on the area that is dark. That should work
@@thecedarridgechronicles Awesome!Thanks for responding so fast.
Degreasing can last months. Simmering helps speed up melting the fat. I have had bears decreasing until the water changes are clear upto 6 months
Oh..one question..what are you soaking your skulls in.??
Water
Wow They sit for two months. I am doing your steps and it has been 9 days and everything is almost off. Is it possible to decrease this two month time to let’s say two weeks? Thanks
Absolutely. The warmer the water the faster, also if you never change the water it smells horrible but works in a fraction of the time because of the bacteria growth. Also, if the skull is already beginning to rot and not fresh it will take way less time. I finished 2 last week that only macerated for about 3 weeks but it was really hot then. Now it's in the 20's and they will take a while.
@@thecedarridgechronicles I am in Florida. Sounds like I am in the right place to do Euros. Thanks for the help.
That's right!
Do you do bear skulls?
I never have. I have done a lot of hogs though. Very similar as far as grease.
After they are bleached in white let them dry and then paint them with Mop and glow they'll look even better and stay that away longer
Cool I'll have to try that
Realize that's an oil your putting back onto your skull
How to you clean the meat off the skulls
I use cold water maceration I'll post a link to the video
ruclips.net/video/DT47112KaCg/видео.html
What about the teeth. Does it clean the teeth?
Yes it does
What % is the peroxide cream. 3% or 12%
I use the 40 volume which I believe is 12%
@@thecedarridgechronicles awsome mate. I can get that. 👍
After using be sure to wash your hands Before you Pee. Heard it's not a pleasant experience!😂 Safety First
What part of North Alabama are you ?
Cullman
@@thecedarridgechronicles how far from Tennessee
About 1 1/2 hours
Anyway you could email a contact number
Would like to speak with you if you have the time
Wiping your hands on your shirt and pants?
Yup all the time. Saves time
It's what work clothes are made for.
@@thecedarridgechronicles doesn't that stuff cause a white spot on clothes?
Yeah it does. Blood will stain them too. If you try to do this wearing good clothes you better have on an apron or something. Easier to just wear work clothes.
Couple wraps of electrical tape around the bases will eliminate worrying about getting the whitening agent on the antlers
Why does everyone say bleaching. Whitening. Bleaching is so bad. As well as Oxi Clean
I say horns too but they are antlers.
