Hi guys 
Here in the europe its not possible to get products such as everclear, foodgrade ethanol alcohols over a certain percentage are illegal.
I can get 93% denatured ethanol wich wont do as i need 96 as far as i can tell.
But i found this product made for Bio Ethanol fake fireplaces. i can get it anywhere between 96, 96.6 and 98% purity, it doesnt say denatured or anything. It says on the other hand that it is pure for the most beatifull flames
On the data sheet it says nothing but ethanol. Ofcourse it says it can damage nervous system in high doses and shit because it contains "organic solvent" but isn't that true for all Ethyl alcohols - AKA drinking alcohol? Hehe ethanol is ethanol nomatter how its produced its the same stuff am i right?
(Better not tell the drunks that, the politicians will have the product denatured faster than you could pronounce the word "denatured" haha)
I can not imagine ANY problem with using this stuff for winterization but i just wanted to run it by the expert panel inhere bfore i do
Please have a better understanding than me for chemistry before replying to this sort of advanced question if no knowledgeable objections are made i am goin ahead with it. I have a vacuumpump and pyrex chamber for purification.
I have schlerosis so i self medicate. I need to make the priducts myself because i cannot trust the quality or health issues with black market oils
its utterly illegal but what can i do... Not function? I think not...
Lastly, untill i can run a closed loop system i have two choises... The thermo bottle way (by far the easiest and less expensive way)
Or the regular blast tube.
Any of you guys have a preferred method and a reason why you use one method over another?
