Just window cleaner I think. Any spray and wipe type product will work. I used isopropyl alcohol for the stubborn stickiness.

I found an easier way to remove chuck: I put a vicegrip on bottom of chuck and hitted down with a hammer a few times and came off within a couple minutes. Descubri una forma mucho mas facil y rapida de quitar el broquero: puse unas pinzas vicegrip en la parte de abajo del broquero y le pegue varias veces con un martillo hacia abajo y salio en menos de 2 minutos.

You have the Mac Pro 3,1 which is really very slow. I am now using the dual Xeon 5690, 12 core Mac Pro 5,1 using 96 GB 1333 RAM, and an NVMe 2 x SSD on PCIe, dual boot, macOS and Windows 11 Pro. With OpenCore the dual boots work native on the machine. No Boot Camp and no emulator needed. I have Radeon RX 6800. With this I can play Red Dead Redemption 2 with all graphics on Ultra, and still get good frame rates. It will give good performance on pretty well all current games. For a 15 year old machine, that is pretty good.
