I just aquired a bird mount and it needs to be cleaned up abit. Mostly old dust. Anyone know the proper way to clean the dust off of it without wrecking the feathers?
Thanks

Good info Riggs,thanks,saved me a bit of typing.....yes important to remember to go with the feathers when dusting. If they happen to get greasy looking(from not being fleshed properly) dampen a paper towel or cloth with Varsal,really cleans up grease...will have a WET look,but should dry properly,try just a small spot to test.
Happy cleaning.
