95% is a very good figure. I actually use the NON-denatured stuff.

How about the drinking stuff? (95% "grain" alcohol).

Here I can by a "fifth" (750ml) for less than 250ml of 70% Isopropyl.



Yes I was reffering to the ethanol drinkable stuff that is not taxed.
Been used for years in medical parties.

Not a wise move. The un-taxed stuff (not for human consumption) often
contains benzene.

Thats the 99% stuff that contains benzene.


Much of the untaxed ethanol uses the benzene process.


None of the 95%.


I wouldn't bet my life on it.
