cutting fluid/coolant diluted 1:5 with water on my Smithy since I got it
in ~'92.

At work we spend 30min each day cleaning every machine down. This includes
all surfaces (painted, ground, etc.). The only cleaner we use is coolant
(the same stuff we use to cut metal). It takes the crap off the machines
quickly and there are no issues with hazardous fumes. Cheap too.
