(13,679 posts)5. Walmart sells 91% isopropyl alcohol for $2.50/quart.
I think the 70% is even cheaper.
Your 75% ethanol would probably work, unless you plan to dilute it with lots of aloe vera gel.
I'm pretty sure you're joking, but I've seen quite a few posts recommending starting with 80 proof (40% ABV) vodka, then diluting down with gel or glycerol.

I think this might be more appropriate since it is 60%:

Isopropyl kills germs but not sure what the percentage is.
