Man, I've read Denatured, Rubbing and Pure Grain alcohol along with water. What's right???

Does anybody know for sure???
Vodka is another one. Sheesh!
It appears that it really doesn't matter what you clean these attys with...

Thanks,

Denatured Alcohol is ethanol with toxins added making it unfit to drink. Vodka is ethanol as is grain alcohol. So in respect to their ablility to clean, they are the same. If you do use denatured alcohol, as mentioned it has toxins added, be sure to rinse the atty well before using.

Read this first post and follow the directions exactly as stated.

Like new attys every time. Using my Riva batteries.

I would never use denatured (might as well use turpentine, acetone, or gasoline). I would not use rubbing alcohol. Rubbing is probably OK, but I wouldn't want to use it. Cheap vodka is cheap - and works well. PGA is too expensive.

Is there a "None of the Above" box to check.

Because if there is, I'll check it. I use White Vinegar.

I agree about the denatured, because of the additives, but rubbing alcohol (isopropanol w/water) is ok... Only if you boil your attys afterwards. The alcohol has a lower boiling point than water, and when placed in boiling or near-boiling water, the alcohol boils away in seconds, leaving no trace behind.
