Water and dish soap with toothbrush, the a short dip in hydrogen peroxide. Let dry and seal with lacquer dip if desired.
Do NOT use ammonia as it has a rapid corrosive reaction with copper.

Tooth brush with soap and water. Then usually into my ultrasonic cleaner.

I have no idea the shipping cost from here to Costa Rica. I can do my research on shipping and get back with you later today.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
