[Histonet] fabric softener

[DiCarlo, Margaret]

Histonetters,
 
After I'm done decaling a large human bone, rinse in running tap H2O for
two hours, then soak in 1% fabric softener for an hour, how long should
I rinse the bone after the fabric softener before I start processing in
70%?  I've never done this but lately I have had great difficulty
sectioning large bones from being so hard that it skips over part of the
bone.  
 
Thanks for your help.
