Don’t go drinking it. It isn’t pure alcohol (ethanol) and contains all sorts of foul tasting shit that is also poisonous.
Any chemists on here?

Surgical spirit is ethanol usually mixed with a bit of methanol to put you off drinking it.
Isopropanol is a different chemical. Used to be used in car windscreen wash back in the day, smells fab.
What you need to understand is that all these are classed as "alcohols" ie they have an -OH chemical group in them.
Methanol CH3-OH
Ethanol CH3-CH2-OH
Isopropanol CH3-CH2(OH)-CH3
The alcohol group (OH) is just joined onto a different carbon atom in Isopropanol....the middle one of three.
Hope this helps.

Surigical spirit is a mix of ethanol and methanol. It doesn't have a single chemical composition cos it's a mixture of all sorts.
Ok mate thanks.

Ask @Charmless Man as he knows the most about the use and consumption copious quantities of alcohol.

I was just going to say , “ better ask hank as he’s always chemist”
There was a few prisoners done (in Portland I think) for mixing lemon squash with alcohol hand rub and drinking it. Now I don’t think they passed an exam to do this but they did show some initiative. Obviously they’ve not passed the “ getting away with it” gcse as that’s 2 failures. Getting caught being put away in the first place and now this

Surgical spirit has methanol, castor oil and methyl salicylate added (that's the characteristic smell)
Not really suitable for cleaning
Isopropyl alcohol can be bought online or from electrical repair type places, wouldn't be a chemists shop item.

Surgical spirit is great for getting rid of athletes foot. Hope this helps.

The closest you’ll get to becoming a chemist is dishing out condoms marra.
The closest I get is getting pissed and actually being chemist
Is this a roundabout way of asking about blobbs?
