Thanks V, useful link.

You can also get it from Chinese warehouses. When covid hit the prices shot up double but have now reduced back to original prices.

FINAL UPDATE.

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. 

I got some this morning from the Agricola co-op in Sax. It cost €4 for a litre bottle and was labelled as Alcohol 96 degrees (no degrees sign on here).
I tipped some onto my hand and it certainly smelt like surgical spirit.

Hey, glad you found what you were looking for. Just an incidental comment about the degree sign.
On android phones it’s in the ‘special symbol’ section and iphone if you press and hold the zero on the numbers section you can select degree symbol °° 😀 Enjoy your day ☀️

Thanks for that, but I'm on a laptop and the CBForum does not seem to offer the possibility of using any signs or symbols.

I can get them using Word or any other programme but not on the Forum.  There may be a way to import them but I don't know how. Thanks.

I use it for the computer and stereo - I got mine on Amazon es - no problem with the delivery at all.


My father told me about it back in the UK. He had bought it from Staples at the time.


I had white, vinyl barstools in my kitchen and there were some ballpoint pen inkmarks on a coupe of the stools.

Rubbed the marks with the isopropyl and although the ink didn’t come off straight away, the next morning it had gone. Marvellous stufff !

I can remember many years ago we always had some in the house for cleaning scraped knees and cuts.

Yes, it will clean anything!
