Put it in the back of the truck. Drive it through the carwash.

There was a product called "Mount Brite" that i used years ago that worked good, not sure if it is still avail or not.
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I wipe all my mounts with a barely damp wash cloth every 3 months. They do get dusty and really shine like a live animal after cleaning.
