Can white spirit be used to clean tiles where alcohol is specified.
It
is to fit Command hanging hooks which specify clean with alcohol .

Either degreases. White spirit is more toxic.

I would have thought white spirit would leave a residue ?

Other way around - white spirit leaves no residue or smell once it's
evaporated, but being much less volatile, that takes much longer,
and it stinks more until it's evaporated.
Your alcohol will have additives to make it toxic and to colour it,
and these leave residues. (Pure ethanol wouldn't, but you can't buy
that without paying lots of duty.)

You can always freeze vodka. That gets you pretty close.

So where do you get your duty free vodka?

There's no lack of illegal spirits on sale, but I would not
recommend/advise it.

Likely fine for cleaning. Risks having some
methanol but thats fine for cleaning.

I do in fact save the first run fraction when I make
mine. Its normally discarded but is fine for cleaning.
