    I would also add that since the 70% has more water added to it by which allows the alcohol to penetrate deeper due to the fact it sits on the surface longer before drying, versus the 91% has less water and therefore evaporates quickly, you’d want to use the higher percentage alcohol when cleaning electronics. For instance, let’s say you have a laptop and you don’t want water penetrating into the air vents, speaker, or the keyboard - because you could get water damage, so you opt to use the 91% instead.

    Glad you shared this information. I’ve been buying 91 % isopropyl alcohol (IA) to clean my bong and realized it was the best solution to use vs the 70% IA. 91% + Himalayan salt or course salt cleans them out even better. Don’t need to buy any solutions but use these two ingredients. Thanks again! 👍

    Viewing this video because I'm on Walgreens website trying to buy some isopropyl alcohol. Was thinking 91% was better, but for some reason, it's not FSA eligible, while the 70% is. This is good info, thanks

    Also 91% Isopropyl Alcohol is the best way to clean electronics internals, chips, PC components, thermal paste and electronic connections like HDMI and USB Type A and Type C.

    Also, 91% is useful for dipping metal or plastics you want to use later, like a two minute dip. Then take the item out for the rapid dry.

    3:11 we use an alcoholic chlorhexidine solution on our stethoscopes. It does not evaporate super quickly tho, so if we spray too much we will use dry it up with a gauze

    I always wondered about that. I make a homemade disinfectant cleaner where I mix alcohol and water in a spray bottle, and then add a little squirt of dish soap. The alcohol I use is 70%. So if I'm understanding you correctly I am using the right one

    • @CleanWithConfidence
      @CleanWithConfidence  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I would say yes since you are diluting the rubbing alcohol with even more water 91% would be better than 70%. 🙂

      That homemade floor cleaner has alcohol in it to kill germs and to dry faster to prevent spotting. Use 91% for a spot free floor.

    Another reason for these percentages is that for example physical practitioners use 91% to actually have a consistent flame in case they need to use it for specific reasons or treatment for example "fire cupping"

    Alcohol likes to bond with water, water likes to bond with everything. So 70% cleans better than 91% for picking up dust and tiny debris

    • @CleanWithConfidence

      plain water actually doesn't clean well at all because it beads up on a surface. That's why cleaning supplies use surfactants.

      @@CleanWithConfidence if you have distilled water, you can submerge your computer in it and it will not conduct electricity, keep it cool and everything will function perfectly. If you drop a phone in the toilet, and run distilled water over it, that will remove all the impurities and the device will work again.
      Your wrong 100% about absolute (distilled) water beading up. It will bead up, it will leave 0 residue behind. It is used by me and my son to clean monitors and it leaves 0 streaks, it cleans better than any cleaner.

      A dude from Microsoft in Seattle told us if you drop your electronics (cell phone etc) in water to dump it in or dround it w alcohol saying that will evaporate the water drying it up. Are you saying distilled water does this also? & wich one is better if just trying to dry and not clean dust etc
      Also the monitors you mention are they the same as these new flat screen TVs that we're not suppose to cean wet rang only dry micro fiber...can we douse the rag w distilled Agua and clean away sir?

      @dale5702 distilled water will bond with all impurities and pull in off the electronics. When it dries it leaves 0 resudue.
      Still takes longer to evaporate but it's non conductive and cheaper. It's safe for all electronics, just don't drink it, it's disgusting. It's also why it's used in cpap machines

      99% is the highest I've seen to buy normally. For electronics etc. The difference is probably to account for traces that are hard to remove.
