You can buy 99% isopropanol at the drugstore if you look for it. I no longer find it at my local Riteaid but picked up two bottles at Vons before the strike.

Good Evening List,


As long as we're talking about cleaning specimens, would isopropyl alcohol be ok for touching up an achondrite? Due to the fact that it has 30% water content, I wouldn't use it on any visable metal bearing meteorites. But would it be ok on an achondrite? Any input will be appreciated. Thanks!
