[Histonet] those slippery lab floors

[Normington Lacy]

Our laboratory has custodial staff put down a multi surface protection film.  The film is sticky on one side and comes on a roll.  That way it can be pulled back up and changed out.  Go to www.surfaceshields.com.  Search "Multipurpose surface protection film:"  This stuff works wonders and the custodial staff love it because they don't have to scrape the floors.  We have ours changed out at least monthly, but call sooner if it starts to look bad before then.  Hope this helps.

All,

Do any of you use floor mats to help with paraffin issues around microtomy stations?

Thanks!
