Where get cheapest methylated spirits?
 
It was somewhere outside Barstow when Bill Woods

I use METHYLATED SPIRITS as a cleaner in the home and garage. I want
to buy a couple of litres.


Anyone got a source for undyed meths without the pyridine ? I'm
using it as a solvent for shellac in french polishing. I can live with
the methanol, but the stench of pyridine is horrible.

Price not really an issue !

At the moment I'm using pure (sic) ethanol, which is a royal pain to
get hold of.

Worth posting this question on this site as they are all wood workers.
