I’m in US-GA and I cannot find denatured alcohol locally. WTF happened? I need something 100% alcohol for cleaning electronics.

    We don’t really have electronics stores here anymore. The highest I’ve seen locally is 91%, and while it does kind of clean it off, denatured alcohol has always worked a lot better for me so it’s disappointing to see that it’s gone. I’ll probably just order some online. But still, I’d be interested in knowing why.

      Very few people bother with hobbyist electronics anymore. It’s not surprising that 100% alcohol is dead in retail stores. Most demand for it today is related to disinfectants.
