There are a couple of different ways of doing this, but for you, if you have no intentions of doing more than just this one skull, it would be as follows:


1 - Remove the skin.


2 - Boil the skull in a large pot.


3 - Carefully remove any remaining meat off the bone. Remove the brain through the spinal column opening in the base of the skull. Use a long wire or small long handled spoon for this. Blast out any remaining material with a hose nozzle and water.


4 - Soak the skull in bleach for several days until it is white and any remaining flesh is gone.


5 - Soak the skull in Peroxide for about 24 hours to remove the bleach. If you do not, the bleach will stay within the bone and eat it away as time goes on.


6 - Soak the skull in fresh water for 24 hours.


7 - Dry the skull in the sun for about 24 hours.


Walla, you're done.I found a deer carcass and removed the head for the skull. How do I remove the flesh to expose the skull?
Dermestid beetles. They are thorough scavengers and are used by taxidermists to clean bones. You can just do a search for carpet beetle or dermestid beetle to fine online shops where you can buy them.

Just be careful, they are also pests and can do a lot of damage if they get loose.
You have to let alot of the flesh rot off. Then you need to boil the carcass in peroxide and water for close to 18 hours and dry to get that clean white look. Its alot of work.
Big pot, boil it until it comes clean.
