Not a Taxi but enjoy being around it. Most of the teeth fall out during the degreasing process. I set the skull in a container with just enoug peroxide to submerge the teeth till desired whiteness then glue teeth back in place.

I wonder if all that grease will eventually come through that bronze coating or make it peel or flake off? Any thoughts on that blindluck?

The bronze metal paint dies to a hard metal coat which can be burnished and left outdoors.  Nothing will penetrate through that metal coating now.   IMO he didn't even have to degrease the skull.   Nice work!
