As a process engineer I also try to all ends to make the process as
foolproof as possible to help reduce the 'unknown' factors that WILL come
up. I believe someone earlier commented that detergent should NOT be used
in the smock cleaning process and not to embarrass or slight Ken, but do
you see how easily 'detergent' can get sucked into the process. So, the
question is, does the employee have enough interest to get a non-detergent
to use on this one article, or will it get thrown in with all the rest of
the wash using the detergent? I vote for controlled cleaning processes. Now
we get to consider the alternate costs and see what path comes out the
winner!?

Not that I don't trust the employees, I just don't have full faith in ALL
humans!

Best of luck on this one.
