Any idea whether it's possible to make your own fluid for the "Clean
and Renew" system of a Braun 390cc shaver?
Would ordinary meths do?


I tried googling for a MSDS for the Braun cleaning fluid, and couldn't
find one, but this page suggests it's basically denatured alcohol with
a bit of citrus oil or citrus perfume

Thanks. In UK is denatured alcohol the same as methylated spirits?


Alcohol without the nature of being drinkable... Which is indeed
meths, (usually ethanol + methanol) however meths we buy here will most
likely have a purple dye in it - whether this is an issue or not when
cleaning a shaver is up to someone else to find out ... I don't electric
shave. (Nasty horrible noisy things!)
