    Has anyone came up with an alternative use for the fluid around the shop, or home?

    I did a few hours research on this subject and found that, basically its antifreeze. The oil acts like a heat sponge. It reduces the freeze point and most importantly, it increases the boiling point, acting like a cooler for the lenses.

    I read that it can be used in CPU coolers.

    If you are looking to dispose of any lens oil, seems you could turn it in to any auto shop that reclaims antifreeze. Of course ask first.

    DON'T DUMP IT OUTSIDE OR DOWN THE DRAIN!
    It is moderately toxic and can cause nerve damage, heart failure, and kidney failure. Be safe and dispose of properly. Good luck
