I spoke to a chap at work that had been employed to manufacture parts for missiles and weapons regarding coolant for aluminium. He said he has used ethylene glycol (radiator fluid) mixed with water and has also used methylated spirits. He said the glycol mix was good because it had corrosion inhibitors and that the methylated spirits was good because it didn't stain the aluminium being machined.
I havn't tried this but the guy seemed very knowledgable so I may give this a test when I get some time.
