[Histonet] Sticky paraffin

[Rene J Buesa]

If you carry-on an excess of xylene (or whatever clearing agent you are using) into the paraffin this problem may occur.

We have been having some issues with sticky paraffin.  We have tried all different kinds or paraffin and have come to the conclusion that it isn't the paraffin, but i'm thinking it might be another factor causing this.  This does not happen everyday, but sporadic.  Does anyone have any suggestions on something we can do to reduce the stickiness?
