LOL!!

Hi Dan. The alcohol must be pure alcohol and not contain any water. Pure
alcohol is not easy to get. Years ago at my place of employment we hsd
some electronic equipment that had gone under water in a flood and what
got the water out was pure alcohol which I believe has a great affinity
for water.

Had to get a clearance from the Customs and Excise people before getting
a large bottle from a chemical supply company. The pure alcohol is very
volatile and should be used very carefully, no smoking
