Skull whitening
« on: December 23, 2013, 04:09:39 PM »
Does anyone use Baquacil Oxidizer to soak their skulls for the whitening process? If so where is a good place to buy it.

Nope, sorry.  H2O2 at 35% for me.

Best thing you could do is go to your local pharmacy buy 4 or 5 bottles of Hydrogen peroxide($3 per bottle), put the skull in a plastic bag, wrap duct tap around it then fill up the bag with peroxide and let it soak a couple days will come out nice and white.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

35% is extremely strong.  My black bear skull this year took less than eight hours for it to fully whiten.  Maybe it's just me.

Best stuff that I have found.  I use 50 volume now instead of the 40.

No damage to the bone when removed after the desired whitening is achieved.  Too each his own.

 Baquacil Oxidizer is 27% peroxide.  It says what it is on the container.

50 Volume hair developer is 15% peroxide

Look up the MSDS on both.

Still wondering where to buy Baquacil Oxidizer and the best way to apply it. I'm assuming you submerge it to the antler base then use paper towel over the skull cap and pedical as a wick.
