you are SOL! sorry
Acetone will get the overspray off. Turn the deer with the ear canal up. Saturate some cotton balls with acetone and place them into the inner ear and let it sit an hour. Blow out the ear with air. Beware that the excess acetone can possibly run into any voids and and come out in places you would never imagine. it can even mess up finish work if it comes out near the eyes.the acetone will evaporate really fast and drive out a lot of water. Try a hair dryer in the ears several times a day too. Keep the fan going.You may lose a few points if the inner ears are a tad spongy but it's real doubtful you will get a fatal flaw. Next allow yourself more time in case something goes wrong. You are going to be very rushed on your finish work now. Good luck at the competition.
