Here's a Youtube vid that shows how. If it's not the one your looking for there are a bunch of others if you just look around.

Default Good Video

Evening,
I bought a video called Taxidermy Made Simple volume 5 Skull Whitening.
Very easy to follow. www.TAXIDERMYMADESIMPLE.com
I have not done a skull myself yet , but have seen the results from others who have. Look's very good.

Did a couple deer skulls last year.

Go to your local hairdresser and buy some hair peroxide paste off her; it's used for bleaching hair.

Paint it on the skull every couple days, then once it's white enough rinse it well and paint with watered down white glue. You could shellac it after than but the glue gave enough shine for me.

Shouldn't be more than $10 but may weird her out.
