Yes, you can, but I would not unless you had to. There are some safety issues, if you do have to use isopropyl alcohol do not fill the stove full is will spit and become more of a safety hazard. Fill no more than Half full. It will also produce more black suit. With most flare up issues it is due to filling the stove to full and the fluid expands, so instead of burning just the vapor. How the stove works is that heat of the initial flame, turns the liquid into a vapor, then just the vapor is burned. This has to happen for the stove to work correctly. This is also how you can get a very hot flame that burns for so long from such a small amount of fuel. Yes, you can, but I would not unless you had to.

You can, but burning it is not recommended due to issues with burning it safely. Use regular ethyl alcohol/ HEET when possible

You can use most any alcohol over about 80%. I've found that drinking (ethyl) alcohol and isopropyl tend to spit and sputter while burning and that may be an issue with the safety. Denatured burns with a slightly yellowed flame (not as hot) but burns well. By far, the best fuel I've used is the yellow bottle HEET brand gasoline additive (methyl), and price-wise its also about the cheapest. Also, be cautious of too small of a windscreen on these stoves as they can overheat and flare up. They need to breath.

The cleaner contains a dry film lubricant similar to Molykote® 557 Silicone Dry Film Lubricant made by Dow Corning. It is not simply isopropyl alcohol. I would add Johnson & Johnson Baby Oil to the alcohol if I were trying to "stretch it." (Actually, I would not try to "stretch it.")

Yes rubbing alcohol does work but burns dirty. Also read the lable on rubbing alcohol because some have a higher percentage of alcohol than others.

I timed one once of 91% isopropyl and got right at a 10min burn time in the kitchen. Think I got 15mins with the same amount of everclear grain alcohol.

I use 70% Isopropyl Alcohol from the drugstore and it works perfectly for me. The point is to make sure the nails are free of any soap residue, etc. DO remember to swipe your nails with a cotton ball soaked in acetone nail polish remover AFTER applying the base and top coats and drying with the light treatment dryer. Just using the light treatment alone will absolutely not dry my nails. I use the base coat first; dry with the light treatment for 90 seconds; immediately follow with the top coat and dry for another 90 seconds with the light treatment; and then briskly swipe each nail several times with the acetone cotton ball and it hardens immediately. I know it sounds odd but it absolutely works for me and nothing else does! Good luck!

I would not recommend using a solvent with this particular ultrasonic cleaning device. There are other devices out there more suited for this type of task.

Yes I just use peroxide with 2 parts water, but you will have to let it air dry!

Daily Life? If you mean like regular rubbing alcohol, then yes. I filled it with the alcohol you buy at the drug stores, and yes, you can use on wounds or disinfect tools used for nails or some beauty tools. I hope I understood your question by my response. The liquid push bottle work great!

Use 91% rubbing alcohol or 99%. Isopropyl alcohol evaporates at room temperature. Wash with iso and let sit open and air dry for a day or a few/ or until there is no scent of alcohol left.

In a word, yes. In the fine print on the back of the individual pcket is a caution statement which reads: Contains isopropyl alcohol.

I never put rubbing alcohol in it but I do use Lysol and Mr Clean every day. No problem at all. Great bottle.

very safe indoors or out. they must be set up on stable surface. The can spill if knocked over. I think heet will work, methyl alcohol without the brand name might be cheaper. I have used rubbing alcohol too. I carried on all over Alaska in the woods as a surveyor and geologist for fifty years. They always worked when I need them. Good Luck

95% Ethanol (denatured) is best. You can get it at paint stores and Home Depot etc. 90% isopropyl is ok but smells like doctor's office. Don't use kerosene, Coleman fuel, or gas of any kind. It's hazardous.

Yes. The sealant over it works quite well. It comes off immediately with rubbing alcohol. Soap and water with a bit of scrubbing will do the trick too. Hope this helps.

doesn't matter, the stuff doesn't work. I used pure rubbing alcohol on my car and it worked great. Pine trees lined my driveway.

yea i have checked the stores but can't find anything besides Isopropyl Alcohol 91%, and Ethyl Rubbing Alcohol 70%wonder if they will work?

It's one bottle. It's generally cheaper to buy at the store, but I've never seen a store carry anything above 91%. Which certainly can make a big difference depending on what exactly you plan to use it for. 99% Alcohol will quickly dissolve paints, adhesives, tars, resins, and also evaporates significantly faster. (The reason it costs so much is because it's highly flammable, and shipping companies don't like that.)
