OLD ENGLISH the dark kind just start with a little and work your way up from there. I have used it on euro mounts that the horns were discolored a little

Use hydrogen peroxide, dont use bleach, it deteriorates the bone. Hydrogen peroxide will whiten the skull without making it more brittle

the best way to stain your antlers is with a real product called antler stain. the best way to bleach your skull is with 40 volume hair stylest peroxide. brush it on put the skull in a black trash bag, put it in the sun for 3 hrs, rinse it off and let it dry.
