>Hello all:
>
>An associate recovered a number of bottles from a water-saturated trench
recently and brought them to the lab for me to clean. Some of these bottles
have partial paper labels on the exterior and I am at a loss as to how to
clean these bottles without destroying the paper. I fear that if I wait for
the mud on them to dry, the paper will dissolve upon brushing, even lightly.
Suggestions?
