Re: [Elecraft] denatured alcohol vs. Everclear
We used Vodka for cleaning VHF and UHF broadcast transmitters. Told by RCA engineers that that is what was in their expensive bottles sold to radio stations. Other alcohol agents left a residue that would eventually arc over.

Re: [Elecraft] denatured alcohol vs. Everclear
To add another thought to the medical doctor's good comments, when I was in school studying chemistry, some of my slower friends studying less rigorous subjects thought it would be a good idea to drink straight Everclear. They quickly and painfully learned the Everclear pulled water from the tissues in their mouth which then blistered. They reported it was all very painful.

Re: [Elecraft] denatured alcohol vs. Everclear
Here, the XYL uses cheap 80 proof Vodka to 'awake' vanilla bean seeds. She has a bunch of vanilla beans and when soaked in alcohol for about 2 months (shaken every day), it makes vanilla extract. She was doing commercial baking when she acquired the vanilla beans because it was MUCH less expensive than purchasing vanilla extract from the store. When she quit baking, she had left over beans, so we have lots of vanilla extract on hand. OK, back to the subject at hand, I used to use 190 proof Everclear for cleaning boards - still applied only as necessary and with a q-tip in the area to be cleaned, blot with a paper towel. But I can no longer get that strength in the local liquor store, they only sell 180 proof (don't want to travel to South Caroline just to get some). So I use other sources of alcohol. Whatever dissolves the flux buildup does the job. If you are very careful, you can use acetone, but it will melt silkscreening and get under components if it gets to the top of the board - apply only with a q-tip in the area of concern on the bottom of the board. I had one repair here where the customer used something for flux removal. It got under ICs and relays and caused multiple leakage paths. I was about to declare it non-repairable, but he was willing to pay the cost of lifting components and cleaning. Remember that rosin flux is non-conductive until it is mixed with a "flux cleaner" - use only in a specific area (do not flood the board), and dry the area after application. Make certain ALL the flux was removed from the area - if there is any residue, it can be conductive, leading to leakage paths. Let it dry and look for 'whitish' stuff. If there is any, you have not done a complete job. 73, Don W3FPR On 7/17/2021 6:15 PM, Paul Van Dyke wrote: Correct ... and the one your ladies know SD-40 alcohol used in my field = Perfume And a world favorite - Vodka, that was used to make perfume and clean parts, Hic..and other things 73 ..needin a chair Paul KB9AVO On Sat, Jul 17, 2021 at 3:49 PM David Christ wrote: I’ll try to introduce some accuracy here.

Re: [Elecraft] denatured alcohol vs. Everclear
Denatured alcohol is NOT wood alcohol. Wood alcohol is METHANOL... it was originally made by fermenting wood. Denatured alcohol is ethanol (drinkable alcohol) that has been purposely tainted/ spiked with a poison substance so that it cannot be sold as drinkable alcohol. Common denaturants are methanol, gasoline, natural gasoline (pentane range hydrocarbons), etc. Dr. William J.
