Probably the writer is referring to slides "mounted" with the Sakura film 
"coverslip".I have done it many times and the FILM will detach easily from the 
section.Had it been a glass coverslip attached with, for example, Permount, 
acetone would not have done anything.René J.

 Have you done this? Acetone does not dissolve resinous mounting media and 
allow removal of coverslips. It's all in the books; buy one.
