If you live someplace where there's agricultural
stuff going on, you can probably get it from a place
that sells farming supplies (I get mine from a
local tractor dealership, for example). Call 'em
up on the phone and ask. . .
Do *NOT* use the stuff you get from the drug
stores-- even the 90% stuff, it still has too
much water for electronics use. The 100% iso
evaporates *completely* at room temprature.
The water content in the other stuff tends to
linger. Not good.

I was looking at the isopropyl container that I
have and noticed that it
is a 50/50 mix of alcohol and water. I wonder if you can get a 100% (or
as near as possible) w/o going to a chemical supply house.
Always check the label carefully. In USA, you can get 90% isopropyl
alcohol in dupermarkets and drug stores, although the weak stuff is much
more common.
