We are using a similar method at our site. The aspirate is placed into EDTA
and then into formalin to fix. We pour the aspirate through a biopsy bag,
open the bag and scrape the spicules together, transfer them to another
biopsy bag and process as usual. I have received several compliments on
Either air dry → methanol (most labs) or air dry → PAP fixative (I always
preferred methanol).

I've generally used the methanol fixation.

We always air dried them and fixed them in methanol, otherwise they washed
off.
