I have taken in 3 road kills so far this year and one of them has this black crap along the main beam its either asphalt from sliding across the road or rubber from the vehicles tire. any ideas on how to remove this without hurting the antler color? I had a guy suggest carburetter cleaner but am afraid to use it with out some conformation first
