Coolant line burst and sprayed my whole control cabinet

Had a braided hose on the 40 year old Bridgeport mill finally give out Tuesday afternoon. The coolant shot right into the open electrical panel, killed the spindle drive and shorted a relay. I shut the main breaker and soaked up what I could, then spent the next 3 hours pulling boards and drying them with a shop vac and a fan. Has anyone else dealt with coolant getting into electronics, and did you add any guards or deflectors after?
