I read a report of a test program conducted by the engineering department of a university (I can't remember which school) very similar in nature to the testing reported in the You Tube video with the exception that the acetone and ATF mixed 50-50 was the overall winner for performance and price.  I have subsequently used the ATF and acetone mixture with great success.  The acetone serves as a carrier to get the ATF into the tiny interstitial spaces.

A sealed container is a good idea as the acetone will evaporate during storage if not sealed.
