A couple of my customers are requesting European mounts with a Camo pattern. I don't know where they have seen this. The skulls are probably dipped in Camo like they do on guns. Has anyone seen this and do you know where I can have it done? Please answer here or call me at (412) 787-1296. Thanks.

Here is another option. Bucky and I have worked together recently..me cleaning the skulls, him dipping the skulls. Soon we will have cleaned and dipped a few skulls for himself and for others on the Mossy Oak prostaff.

I need to check that "camo dipping" out. How could they possibly dip something into a "camoflage liquid" and have it come out with a realtree pattern!?!?

That boggles my mind... Unless this "dipping" isn't actually dipping at all and it is applied some other way...

It's a film that's laid over a liquid. The film becomes "liquid" but holds it's shape. The object is then dipped into the film floating on top the liquid. When the liquified film touches that object, it immediately clings to it, when removed you have the pattern.

Here's a link to our local "dipper."

Here's some help too:

They float a film over water and then immerse the area to be dipped into the the water. As the object passes thru the film, it adheres to the surface.
