We have found that skimmers will pull a lot of coolant over so you have to let it settle again and have a second skimmer in the first collection tank skimming into a final collection tank. We also found if the first tank was heated, we are dealing with 50 gallon drums and use a band heater, the oil separates more effectively.
An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
