Concoction for an ultrasonic cleaner ???

[STANIMAL]

Anyone have a good cleaning concoction for an ultrasound cleaner that does not darken aluminium ?

We use a product made by Hill MFG in Atlanta in our ultrasonic tank at work. I don't see anything about it online (their website just shows a vague list of products). Aluminum parts don't seem to mind it and it works very well.

acetone or isopropyl alcohol.

use it all the time.

L&R is the leading supplier of ultrasonic cleaning solutions. Their #222 Instrument Cleaning Solution is about 70% Stoddard Solvent, 20-25% Naptha and a few other chemicals used in small amounts. (it sells for about $60/gallon)

You can get real close to this formula by simply using a 70/30 mix of Odorless Mineral Spirits (Stoddard Solvent) and Coleman Fuel (Naptha).
