Euro Mount

[JALA RUT]

Just rinsed off the peroxide paste, finished doing my own Euro mount of my buck...from field on 11/20 to mount on 12/11. I think it came out pretty good!

You did one heck of a nice job, congrats.

Real nice job Jala Rut !

very nice, give it a coat or two of mop n glo, will give a very light sheen on it and seal up the bone.

No kidding…..not a snowballs chance in hell I’d get away with that.

Agreed in my house too. I can push it and get away with some BS. My wife would hunt me down in a bad way if I did that, however.

I do about 10 in the house a year, dish soap and power laundry booster they don't even smell.

Borax helps, no peroxide needed

Did 3 seperate boils and powerwash after each. Was never a true boil, more like a good simmer, for about 3-4 hours each, with some Dawn dish soap in each boil to pull oils out of skull/bone, to lessen chances of those oily spots bleeding through whitener.

Peroxide paste after boil and light pressure washing

What kind of power washer do you have ? I always skip the boil completely, with this 5 hp, 3200 psi model.  It takes me about 1/2 hour, to blast out all of the soft tissue, after skinning the raw head.

My wife still complained a little,  walking past the mess on the driveway the same day, but the birds and vermin always have the mess completely cleaned up by the next morning.  Far less complaints overall, than when I boiled them in the house.  
 

Another nice thing about keeping them raw, is that you don’t weaken the delicate bone structure around the nose or get any of the yellowing, that can come from too much heat. I don’t really care for shiny white or camo-dipped euros, preferring instead the natural “raw bone” color.

Peroxide finish. Volume 40, brush on. My pressure washer is only 1800psi. I feel like 2200 would be ideal.
