What works best to clean tools and tool holders ?
Same Question for fixture cleaning?
Very basic shop operation questions, that I bet have been answered many times here.
Mostly want the newest and best advice from current cnc forum readers and users.
Thanks again!

I will clean tool holders with either Windex or Coleman camp fuel (naphtha or white gas).
I clean the machine with Windex, and that has worked great for almost 4 years.
About twice a year, I'll pump all the coolant out, wash the tank with Simple Green and refill it.
