Oil Eater(Incredible stuff)Pics added

Anybody else used this stuff? I got some and have been soaking a stubborn whitetail in it for about four days now. It hasn't seemed to pull any grease out yet.

 

Any updates on this? Has anyone tried to gently heat it to 110-115 degrees?

 

updates ...

 

So Sea wolf if we are to avoid peroxide what would be the best route? maybe putting back in the dawn and water mixture for a couple days or just washing the skull off?

 

Oil Eater is fully water soluble, so a good rinse and then soak in water for 24 hours should make a skull safe for peroxide.

 

That would be what I would try. Just to make sure it is all out or at least not enough left to react.

There are people that like to add peroxide to their degreasing solutions. I would highly advise that you do NOT do this using this product.

 

try anything on this planet, nothing you can legally possess, will degrease skulls better and faster, than lacquer thinner. the cheap wash thinner. tested everything, Jay at skulls unlimited will agree. Later, Bruce.v.carlson@gmail.com

 

How come more people don't use the laquer thinner? Does the smell go away?

 

Lacquer thinner is very hazardes. Flammable, & can soak into your body by way of your hands. It melts grease. Also helps melt rhe cottage cheese like fats that form from long soaking in rot tanks. Long soaking ( 6 months ) the bacteria eats alot of the grease..say a LG. Alligator, or a coastal.fish eating brown bear. These are better suited doing beetles, than soaking in lacquer thinner for degreasing 6 months, switching two to three times ending up with you cleanest thinner. Also lacquer thinner leaves no smell, while acetone leaves a sweet rotten smell. Not good. Later b.carlson.

 

I would have to disagree with acetone leaving a smell. I use it frequently. It is highly volatile and rapidly evaporates leaving no smell or residue of any sort. I have many skulls soaked for long periods in straight acetone. There is no odor at all .. of any type.

 

X2 on acetone leaving no smell.

 

Right. Acetone evaporates entirely, leaving no residue, and therefore no smell

 

I picked up a gallon of oil eaters yesterday gonna give it a try. Has anybody tried heating it yet?

 

Does the lacquer thinner damage the bone?

 

I haven't tried heating it, but it seems to do pretty good on it's own as is. Maybe the OP will chime in here.

 

I like the sounds of this. A lot. I would love to hear from some more people who have tried it...

 

Bought some today. Now I just need a spare skull

 

I'm gonna try it as soon as this flu wears off. . .

 

had a racoon skull that was sitting around. put it into a small plastic jug. added roughly 2 oz of oil eater.............seems to be pulling out the grease after 3 days. will change it out a few more times and let everyone know what happens!
