   Depends on the rock matrix that the fossil is in. For most fossils, mild acetic acids (basically vinegar) are used.

   The gentler the method, the better. Since we don’t know what exactly you’ve got, I would suggest a soft toothbrush and a gentle stream of running water. I wouldn’t even use soap until I knew more about what your fossil is composed of.
