[Histonet] Cleaning Metal Cassettes

[GUTIERREZ, JUAN]

We clean all our metal cassettes and molds in a big metal pot with hot soapy water.  Boil them for about 20 min. let them cool, collect the paraffin that solidifies on the surface and rinse the molds and cassettes with lots of running water.  They'll look like new.
