I mean... The acetone isn't good to drink but it's the Denatonium Benzoate that you really want to worry about. Even in extremely small, very diluted portions, it's unbearably bitter. It's specifically added so you can't make it into an alcoholic beverage.
Doughboy:
don't listen to them, i once drank a bath tub full of industrial ethanol and had a great time

it also appears from my research that buying pure ehtyl alcohol is only sold to businesses and schools. i guess they don't want people having that strong of the substance on the streets
Master Matthew²:
ITT: OP tries to make stuffty moonshine with rubbing alcohol.
Juncoph:
almost all ethanol products on the market are denatured. denatured ethanol is ethanol that's been contaminated with trace chemicals rendering it unfit for consumption- perhaps it's too disgusting, but usually it's also outright toxic.

the reason these hard-to-remove chemicals are added? consumable alcohol gets alcohol tax.
