I have had to process similar tissue (animal claws) and have found that a
solution of 10% fabric softener in PBS overnight after fixation works very
well.

The dermatopathology lab in which I work is having difficulty  adequately
softening (using decal or home permanent solution) and successful adherence of
sections on the slide for routine staining and special stains (using gelatin
and coated slides).

I will appreciate any information that will be of help in this area.
