I first started pressure washing deer capes in a taxidermy shop. Makes them very clean. I also trap, and use it for small animals. It is especially good for fatty animals, like coons ,beaver. Saves a lot of time.
You do have to develop a feel as how to hold the angles, and such. You have to be careful around the edges of the hide, especially places like the belly, where it is thinner, it will cut through. You will get messy!
