1. An apparatus to retain solvent, the apparatus comprising: a tray surface formed to extend outward from a solvent sink with an incline toward the solvent sink;one or more tray walls disposed at a perimeter of the tray surface, the one or more tray walls extending upward from the tray surface;a tray attachment interface formed to support the tray surface and the one or more tray walls relative to the solvent sink; anda removable clip comprising an outer clip wall and an inner clip wall with an upper clip wall disposed between the outer clip wall and the inner clip wall, and a clip extension extending from the upper clip wall, the inner clip wall extendable between the solvent sink and a solvent tank, the upper clip wall slidable along an upper rim of the solvent tank such that an opening beneath the clip extension receives a leveling bracket extending from the solvent sink to couple the solvent sink to the solvent tank to stabilize the solvent sink with regard to the solvent tank in response to an unbalanced pressure being exerted on the solvent sink from an object on the tray surface. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the tray attachment interface comprises a lip formed to extend from the tray surface into the solvent sink along an inner surface of the solvent sink and one or more support arms extending downward from the tray surface and formed to abut an outer surface of the solvent sink. 3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the tray attachment interface further comprises one or more shelf openings disposed between the lip and the one or more support arms, the one or more shelf openings formed to provide space for an upper edge of the solvent sink. 4. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the tray attachment interface further comprises lip interface material disposed between the lip and the inner surface of the solvent sink and support arm interface material disposed between the one or more support arms and the outer surface of the solvent sink, the lip interface material and the support arm interface material each comprising padding material that provides friction between the tray attachment interface and the solvent sink. 5. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the tray surface, the one or more tray walls, and the lip are integrally formed from a single continuous piece of material. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising an elongate trough disposed along an edge of the tray surface adjacent to the solvent sink, the elongate trough shaped to receive a flange extending from a lid of the solvent sink. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, further comprising a drain disposed within the elongate trough, the drain in fluid communication with at least one of the solvent sink and a solvent tank. 8. A system to retain solvent, the system comprising: a solvent tank comprising an upper rim that circumscribes an upper edge of the solvent tank;a solvent sink in fluid communication with the solvent tank, the solvent sink comprising a bracket that supports the solvent sink on the upper rim of the solvent tank;a clip comprising an outer clip wall and an inner clip wall with an upper clip wall disposed between the outer clip wall and the inner clip wall, and a clip extension extending from the upper clip wall, the inner clip wall extending between the solvent sink and the solvent tank, the upper clip wall slidable along the upper edge of the solvent tank such that an opening beneath the clip extension receives the bracket of the solvent sink, the clip coupled to the upper rim of the solvent tank and to the bracket of the solvent sink thereby removably securing the solvent tank to the solvent sink, the clip comprising one or more fasteners that lock the clip to the upper rim of the solvent tank and to the bracket of the solvent sink; andone or more solvent retention shelves, each solvent retention shelf comprising, a tray surface extending outward from the solvent sink, the tray surface inclined toward the solvent sink;one or more tray walls disposed at a perimeter of the tray surface, the one or more tray walls extending upward from the tray surface; anda tray attachment interface supporting the tray surface and the one or more tray walls relative to the solvent sink. 9. The system of claim 8, further comprising a drain disposed within the solvent sink and in fluid communication with the solvent tank, solvent from the one or more solvent retention shelves running from the one or more solvent retention shelves into the solvent sink, through the drain, and into the solvent tank. 10. The system of claim 8, further comprising a solvent pump and one or more solvent hoses, the solvent pump delivering solvent from the solvent tank to the solvent sink through the one or more solvent hoses. 11. The system of claim 10, further comprising a solvent filter between the solvent tank and the solvent pump, the solvent filter removing contaminants from the solvent that the solvent pump delivers from the solvent tank to the solvent sink. 12. The system of claim 8, further comprising a lid of the solvent sink. 13. The system of claim 12, further comprising a fusible material supporting the lid in an open position, the fusible material melting to close the lid in response to a fire in the solvent sink. 14. The system of claim 12, wherein each solvent retention shelf further comprises an elongate trough disposed along an edge of the tray surface adjacent to the solvent sink, the elongate trough shaped to receive a flange extending from the lid of the solvent sink. 15. The system of claim 8, wherein the tray attachment interface comprises a lip extending from the tray surface into the solvent sink along an inner surface of the solvent sink and one or more support arms extending downward from the tray surface and abutting an outer surface of the solvent sink. 16. The system of claim 8, wherein the one or more solvent retention shelves are removable from the solvent sink and are installable in a plurality of positions around the solvent sink. 17. A method for forming a solvent retention shelf, the method comprising: forming one or more tray walls at a perimeter of a tray surface formed to extend outward from a solvent sink, the tray walls extending upward from the tray surface;forming a lip on the tray surface, the lip extending downward from the tray surface on one edge of the tray surface;attaching one or more support arms to the tray surface, the one or more support arms extending downward from the tray surface, the lip and the one or more support arms forming one or more shelf openings;attaching a clip to the solvent sink to couple the solvent sink to a solvent tank to stabilize the solvent sink with regard to the solvent tank in response to an unbalanced pressure being exerted on the solvent sink from an object on the tray surface, the clip comprising an outer clip wall and an inner clip wall with an upper clip wall disposed between the outer clip wall and the inner clip wall, and a clip extension extending from the upper clip wall, the inner clip wall extending between the solvent sink and the solvent tank; andsliding the upper clip wall along an upper rim of the solvent tank such that an opening beneath the clip extension receives a leveling bracket extending from the solvent sink. 18. The method of claim 17, further comprising placing the one or more shelf openings over an upper edge of a solvent sink. 19. The method of claim 18, further comprising interfacing the lip with an inner surface of the solvent sink. 20. The method of claim 19, further comprising interfacing the one or more support arms with an outer surface of the solvent sink such that the tray surface extends outward from the solvent sink and the tray surface is inclined toward the solvent sink, the lip and the one or more support arms supporting the tray surface and the one or more tray walls relative to the solvent sink.
