I have heard that dihydrogen monoxide works well in this application, this information is however unsubstantiated so proceed with caution.

I have actually used it quite a bit and have found it to be most effective when diluted with water in a 3:1 ratio.

Shucks, Eugene ... I've been preaching about the hazards of DHMO for years (just not here). Did you know that 100% of malignant tumors are loaded with DHMO? Could go on for hours...
 
Yeah, you can bathe in it, but it is a proven fact that everyone that has ever come in contact with it eventually dies. What can you expect from a chemical used with some paints, both as a thinner and a solvent?
 
We have a 1950's radial drill press at the shop where I work, they took a job building a clothes hanger (the automated system that unpackages shirts and places them on hangers for retail display) which was placed next to it, that drill press stopped working within a week, this leads me to believe that it may not be the detergents at work. Cotton may be the cause of machine failure, think about how often you have had a machine fail whilst you were wearing cotton clothing, coincidence?
I think not.

That is a nice big drill press, the machine shop at my ex-job has an "American Hole Wizard" about the same size. I once used it to bore the seals on an HP turbine diaphragm, about 36" diameter. As I sit here I am steeping barley in 3 gallons of 160 deg DHMO, perhaps the best use for it's solvent properties.
