Hi Brandi
 
Do you do hot water flushes? If not the film will be a build up of the buffer salts from your formalin.  To flush replace your formalin containers with hot water and write a program to run each container for 10-15 minutes.  This will not only clean the retorts but the fluid lines as well.  This should be done weekly or at least monthly if time is an issue.
 
regards
Tony
