    Good video, here are two thoughts: (1) you should be able to find 99% isopropyl alcohol, it is a better cleaner for all purposes than 70%, the water in which causes a compromise through slower evaporation (it is only there to aid in its disinfecting properties); (2) pure acetone does not leave a residue. If you have a residue after using acetone, it is either because the acetone had impurities in it (commonly from plastic containers) or because the acetone reacted with brush/cloth you used or the surface on which you see the residue. In any event, if you don't need the solvent / degreasing properties of acetone for a particular cleaning task, it is almost always better to use isopropyl alcohol because it is less likely to react with the thing you are cleaning or the tools you are cleaning with.

    I always have denatured alcohol in my shed. Actually used it today removing sticker glue from a wood cap from my candle. I use it in esbit alcohol stoves for hiking but mostly use it as a cleaner.

    Haven’t used Acetone in awhile but it’s very volatile and flammable as I recall and evaporates fast. Careful with it.

  • @Wishbringer7

    As a summary with additional points: Isopropyl comes in various strengths (all the way up to 99%), but it is a residue alcohol. If it burns it puts off a black soot which is very difficult to remove without use of chemicals (such as acetone). Far superior on almost every level is Denatured Alcohol, which is a pure, non-residue alcohol. When it burns it produces no soot, fumes or odors (it is highly recommended for alcohol camping stoves). It does very well with cleaning, so long as the surface is alcohol-tolerant (most surfaces are). Acetone is great if the strength of acetone is needed. The problem as pointed out is that it is a very strong chemical than can melt some surfaces, and it evaporates very quickly. While it can leave a residue (depending on the brand and the cloth used to apply it), it is often used to REMOVE residue from other cleaners, so it is considered a "clean" solvent. Interestingly, some recommend using denatured alcohol to remove any possible residue from acetone. Acetone has strong fumes. Overall, Denatured Alcohol is the best of the three if it does the job... but sometimes the extra power of acetone is required for a specific job. Definitely be sure to test the surface first though, because acetone is what's used to remove artificial fingernails nails; it's that strong.

    Can u use denatured alcohol to clean latex paint brushes? I was worried it would damage the bristles...if u can use denatured alcohol how do you go about cleaning them? Soak all the bristles for a time peroid or put a little on and work it through the bristles? Any help would be appreciated.

    • @TheTacticalPainter
      @TheTacticalPainter  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'll start by saying I don't have firsthand knowledge with latex paint brushes, but I think what it really comes down to is whether or not the alcohol will act as a solvent to the media you're using with the brushes as to whether they'll clean them off or not. Latex is pretty impervious to most solvents, so I don't think it'll damage them.

    • @TheTacticalPainter

    Great video. I have just treated an english white oak beam with boiled linseed oil and after 3 days its dried way to dark. I obviously didn't sand it enough prior and would like to use acetone to remove the oil before i go back to the sander and start again. Would acetone do the trick and break the linseed oil down so i can wipe it off?

      Ooh, that's a tough one. I'm not sure, I would try it on a piece of cut off if you have some before attempting on the actual piece. Problem with linseed oil is it works into the wood and penetrates it, so it's not just on the surface like a lacquer or polyurethane. So I don't know if there is a way to strip it.

      Probably, but if your garage floor has a top coat of a plastic or resin I would recommend using acetone it might dissolve a little bit of the top layer.

Water would be preferred but if not rubbing alcohol might work too, but be sure to do it in plenty of ventilation and with absolutely no open flame or sparks around.

    Isn't denatured alcohol unsafe to handle with bare hands because it contains methanol?

    • @TheTacticalPainter
      @TheTacticalPainter  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, some brands use methanol as the additive to drive out the water. According to data sheets that I see, the concentration of methanol is less that 10% of the solution. When used in our application, it is hardly enough of a measurable dose of the methanol through the skin to have any effects on the body at all. However, if you're concerned, you can always wear gloves or a small baggy on your finger like I do when applying a CA Finish.

      No, Denatured alcohol is ethanol (ethyl alcohol) made unfit for human consumption by adding one or more chemicals (denaturants) to it. Denaturing refers to removing a property from the alcohol (being able to drink it), not to chemically altering or decomposing it, so denatured alcohol contains ordinary ethyl alcohol.

      @@e4clark Partially true, it's not a misunderstanding, more if a misconception. Most people think they add the chemicals to prevent consumption. In truth the chemicals added are to expell the last 10% of water from the mixture. Making it 100% alcohol, but in turn makes it toxic for consumption. Everclear is "safe" for consumption, but should be diluted with other substances like Coke or Sprite because it's so close to straight alcohol that just a shot or two can give you alcohol poisoning.
