You can do the same with mineral oil, I believe. However, unlike Fluorinert,

The coolant is Fluorinert, a fluorinated
hydrocarbon. It is not an ozone-depleting
substance, as far as I know, but would still probably be considered hazmat which
would complicate shipment. Probably the best thing would be to drain it, and
ship separately in barrels.
I remember seeing a video years ago of someone dunking a powered on Macintosh
(original) into a clear-walled tank of that stuff. It was pretty cool.
