soaking in xylene for at least a couple of hours (overnight is best) works
for us.

 Hi colleagues,

 I need to remove a glass coverslip from a mounted HE biopsy slide with an
 implant in order to run some biomaterial surface characterization studies.
  Does anyone have a SOP that they would be willing to share for removing
 glass coverslips without damaging the specimen?  Thanks in advance for all
 of the great advice that I always get from the histonet.

Hi,
I don't have an actual SOP but we just soak in a jar of xylene until the 
coverslip come off.
