More like 60% of all the fluid in the cooling system was ATF.
I drained the radiator and got more ATF than I did actual coolant.
Only drops of coolant in the trans filter.

I meant after a shade tree coolant flush. Versus a Shop machine exchange.

The funny thing is that hot water is what I use to clean ATF off of stuff. And what the book says to flush the cooler with.
