I run just distilled water in the tank. 
I put the dirty bits in zip top bags filed with what ever solution I think 
works best.  Sometimes I&#39;ll use windex, or a home mix of water+rubbing 
alcohol+dawn dish soap+baking soda. 
Seal up the bag with the parts plus concentrated solution, run the cleaner for 
30 min or so, and the tank and water stays clean.  
If the grungy bits aren&#39;t too bad, I can reuse the zip top + solution 
again, and I keep the bag of fluid in an old plastic costco nuts container with 
a wide screw top lid.

What does the group have to say about preferred fluids for ultrasonic 
cleaning?  I had always heard just water with a few drops of detergent. My 
wife came to me asking to clean her jewelry and she wanted to know if I had 
enough "pine sol" Who told you to use Pine Sol?!?  One of her friends!

Figured I would Pulse the group on it.
