Daughter bought a kudu euro mount for decoration

She got it from an older guy who said it had belonged to his father

Fairly sure it is nicotine stained

Any way to clean that off of bone?

I have seen a lot of things come out of smokers houses that look similar so that is why I am guessing nicotine

make sure you save the wash water...it is going to be one of the best insecticides you have ever used

The taxidermy supply companies sell products for that purpose.

Might have yellowed due to not getting all the grease out of it ?
I would think peroxide might take out nicotine yellowing too, not real sure though.

Put your skull in water and let it soak for 12 hours first.After you put the solution on cover with plastic,it will keep it from drying out and help pull the staining out.

You can buy the stuff on amizon.

Simmer the skull in water with some dawn soap. After a few hours take it out, brush it with a 40 volume peroxide cream. Itll be white when finished

Thanks

The bone that was not exposed is white so 99% sure it is not grease stain from fat/tissue/not cleaned good to start with
