Do NOT use water based solvent!
The water soaks into the friction material and then when the trans is put into use, the heat from normal operation makes the water steam, and it will blow the friction material right off the steel backing.
This is why a trans that get antifreeze or water in it from a radiator cooler leak, will cause the friction material to "peel" off the steel backing plate.
