So the time has come to change the fluid in my parts washer. What have people had success with? I used to work at a shop that used to use a concentrate that mixes with water. It cut very very well. Just looking for everyone's $.02 worth. Thanks!

I don't remember the name, but what I got from Tractor Supply a few years ago works good.It seems to last longer if you can catch soemtime when you don't need to use ti for a couple weeks, and after it sets a while rig a small siphon to take it down to a couple of inches then throw away the left over and reuse, plus enough to refill.

I use kerosene in mine.
All the old tractor manuals I've read say to clean parts in kerosene. Works well and readily available.
My parts washer has a lid with fuzable link in case of fire.

I've used Castrol Superclean, and it works good, but is a little rough on your skin. Autozone has a Coastal version that doesn't burn as bad. If you wear gloves when you use it (I don't), go with the Castrol. Both are environmentally friendly.
