Additives for parts washer?

[kendogg]

I know the parts washer solvent stuff has been beaten to death, but - I know there is stuff you can add to your your parts washers to change how it smells. I can't remember the proper term for it. Can somebody help me with that?

Ive never heard or seen anybody do that, but I was thinkin..
I run Methanol(alcohol) for fuel in my race car, I use ,with my fuel, a "top Lube" additive since alky is a dry fuel that contains Fragrance. "Supercharged Strawberry is my fave! Im sure it would work in your parts washer, i also notice they sell fuel Fragrances too with out "top lube"..that might work

You need a biocide to keep the bacterial growth down, that is what they use in cutting fluid tanks as well.

I don't know about odor, but I've considered adding this stuff to mine to stretch the usefulness of the solvent.
