Drill ending in coolant, wet (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

training

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'drill' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'ending in coolant wet' is the wordplay.
'ending' becomes 'train' (train is a kind of ending).
'in coolant wet' becomes 'ing' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'train'+'ing'='TRAINING'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for training that I've seen before include "Exercising" , "drill" , "Instructing, teaching" , "Prepare for a competition or career" , "Tuition" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
