We use Permaslip acrylic for manual coverslipping. Sakura media for our automated coverslipper. We have also used Richard-Allan CytoSeal with great resuls. We stopped using one called Quick-mount (comes in tube) because they had a batch that was bad and the media turned cloudy and the slips dropped off after about 6 months. That has been a pain....

We are having coverslips coming unstuck from some of our teaching slides after 3 or 4 years. It is very frustrating when cover slipping manually and wondering how long it will last.
