[Histonet] RE: Metal molds

[Goins, Tresa]

We haven't cleaned our molds for five years - if the blocks are cold enough after embedding, there is no problem removing the block.

 OK folks, I know I should be smarter than this and I haven't seen discussion on it lately.... 

Are people cleaning their metal embedding molds after evey embedding session?

If not, how often do you clean them? 

Do you clean them at all?

If you clean them, how do you do it? 

Thanks
