Inherited mounts
« on: February 22, 2016, 04:37:49 PM »
I recently inherited several vintage mounts. Was wondering best way to clean them up. Been hanging in same house for 40 yrs on couple. Just want to clean, not looking to restore to show quality. Thanks

I may not have alot but what I have I got honest.....

I'd rather be hated for what I am then be loved for what I'm not

Is it me, or are people getting dumber

I would take them to a taxidermist. Most of them should be able to do a thorough cleaning and it should not cost much.

Use a feather duster to clean them up.  Or duster of sorts.  You can clean the ducks up with makeup brush.  One the wife uses for blush.  It will get the feathers laying correctly and knock the dust off as well.
