drinking ethyl rubbing alcohol
Damp:
see, most people would say drinking rubbing alcohol is damn stupid. and you would be right because most lab and medical alcohol is isopropyl. but the kind of rubbing alcohol I have at home is ethyl(ethanol) which is the same type of alcohol use in beverages.
my question is do you think it would be a good idea to dilute this and make it into a drink. I would be definitely getting alot more profit as bottles like these can go for 2 bucks.
my second question is what is the other 30% of the ethyl rubbing alcohol. is it toxic chemicals? or just water as a filler?
e-maxx:
no
Damp:
thanks for the insight you helped with the closure to my question

Not stuff you want to be drinking. Denatonium Benzoate is a bittering agent, which means if you drink it, it's going to be extremely unpleasent.
