The clue was in the word 'Solvent'...

Not at all. You can buy many, many solvents, most of them far more
harmful than ethanol, without signing anything:

Meths (ethanol + various impurities)

But time was that you would have to sign the poisons book when buying meths
- at least in Scotland. Within my memory! I don't know about the other
solvents.
