You Can Still Get Isopropyl Alcohol Here + + + FREE SHIPPING + + + amzn.to/3nj6p97 (amazon affiliate link)
And Fred Meyer,and Wal Mart as well 70% Isopropyl strength.
It’s used in making hash oil.... probably why it’s hard to find.
@@jimlahey8919 Isopropyl isn't clean enough, what's better is a food grade alcohol like Everclear, which is even more versatile than isopropyl.
The same goes for making extracts. Don't use anything but food grade.
The cutting edge is using super-critical CO2 which evaporates without flammable fumes.
@@janinewellman1814 you can fine 91% at wally world too.
@@jimlahey8919 Isopropyl alcohol is a purer form of denatured alcohol aka wood alcohol that you cannot drink.
I did a lot of research with the flammable capabilities when I was a kid.
Don’t we all
Ah I know that only we were 17 and almost burnt down our class
@OBAMFSpike I remember that method.
Potato acceleration tube
If you buy the 70% stuff and want to concentrate it further you can mix the rubbing alcohol with some table salt and shake it a bit. Salt is much more soluble in water than isopropyl alcohol and the alcohol and water layers will actually separate leaving a salt water solution and a high purity alcohol solution.
Pro tip. Use a small push pin to make one hole in the aluminum seal. This will cut down on *waste straight from the bottle. Like a squeeze bottle with a thin stream
Excellent idea. 👍
It will reduce waste, too
Waste * lol
@@luke-te3sr we knew what you meant.
@OBAMFSpike we are all human. I made the mistake of inviting a robot to translate my voice into text
A handful of other good uses:
-Removes adhesive left behind by stickers
-Remove oils/grease from objects
-If you have ever cleaned your car windows and found a bunch a streaks after. Wipe the window down first with alcohol and then wash with window cleaner. The Alcohol removes the oils/dirt on the car windows.
Gets marker off whiteboards too
Its a great solvent after all.
It’s also Good for cleaning motherboards
Removes Sap from my windshield🥰
Adding to this list:
- removes permanent marker
- great degreaser
- removes sticker/glue residue
- good carb/parts cleaner
- helps relieve itching
I always have a bottle or two in the shop. Very useful when you need it!
Going on the windshield deicing idea, I’ve added a small amount of isopropyl directly into my wiper fluid reservoir to help prevent the fluid from freezing once it is sprayed on the windshield when it’s extremely cold. I’ve had great luck with it instantly melting ice/snow on the windshield.
Anyone else have trouble focusing on Cody when he has such a perfectly organized background?🤣
LOL... I noticed... the guy is definitely OCD! Wish I was that organized.
Ocd wall...love it🤣
I was so glad I had a bottle of 90% in March when the alcohol and hand sanitiser disappeared overnight. I mixed it with glycerin to make my own hand sanitiser. Also made another with aloe vera gel which I preferred. Got us through when you couldn't get the stuff anywhere.
FYI: If you cannot find isopropyl alcohol then check your local liquor store for Everclear which is 95% pure grain alcohol and works just as well in most cases. I use it for making my own cologne and body sprays with essential oils. We also make our own bathroom spray using 90% or better alcohol and cinnamon essential oil (doTerra Cassia.)
I have helped at the mortuary a lot. You encounter tons of bad germs there. I sprayed my hands and equipment frequently.
A mist from a spray bottle really stretches the alcohol supply.
It is also good for door knobs and other public-use items.
Anyway spray it on your hands and rub it in. Remember your finger tips and clean your nails then treat under them.
You mentioned it as a stand alone for nausea but it also enhances the effectiveness of anti-nausea prescription drugs and is safe to use at the same time so if your Zofran or Meclazine isn't quite good enough you can add sniffing an alcohol wipe or a few drops on a cotton ball with no adverse affects.
Retired anesthesiologist here. We always tried having a nauseated postoperative patient sniff some isopropyl alcohol sponges. I don’t know about 50% success, but certainly it worked a third of the time.
When opening the foil on the alcohol, just poke a small hole in the foil so it comes out in a more controllable amounts, and it also helps keep the alcohol from evaporating as fast, so the bottle last longer.
Wranglerstar 2020: “I’ve never had nausea”
Time stamp?
10:40
Do people just get nausea? I've only ever had it once when I had stitches removed.
@@sweetlifefarm1982 Wondering if he's referring to Vertigo, which is different. I often feel 'spewy', just by the smell of things. Then again, I'm always crook (sick).
@@sweetlifefarm1982 I want to see that too, lol. Cody and fam seem to lack nothing. Not that I'm jealous, just always interested in what happens in the US and see him as a bit of a beacon of how good his country is, even if it's defending himself and his country.
Alcohol is useful for just about anything in a pinch.
A tip for for the ice pack. Soak up the solution with a sponge before you put it in a plastic bag and freeze it. It won’t leak as much if the bag gets punctured.
To make a 16 oz. ice pack, use a 50:1 solution of water and sodium polyacrylate in a zip bag. To lower the freeze point, add 1 tablespoon or less of glycerin.
the sodium polyacrylate makes the gel
I'll bet Jack is thrilled about the entire world knowing about his toe nail fungus
@HH AA Do you know what a fungal infection is? Most toenail infections tend to involve fungus of some sort.
We have a fungus among us .
#17 - Deodorant (not antiperspirant). Most deodorants used to be alcohol in some kind of carrier. We have used it in the summer because most deodorants, and antiperspirants, have some kind of fragrance added, and most artificial fragrances attract insects. I also know someone who has skin reaction to to fragrances, and he uses it. It doesn't last all day, but most deodorants don't either.
Single best use of this is sap removal from clothes and hands! It's magic!
Also GO JO for sap remover, cloths and hands .
My #1 use for it is for surface prep. It’s a great cleaner before glue, paint, or double sided tape.
If you know you just got into poison oak, rinse affected skin and wipe off with clean towel. It removes the oils from your outer layer of skin taking the poison oak oils with it
I've also used rubbing alcohol for a ringworm infection, just wet the area with it a couple times a day for like 3 days
Reminds me: Nothing sticks to oil. I've used olive oil to remove pine pitch from hair. Also helps remove label glue from products.
Works great as a padlock deicer. I keep a bottle in the truck for whenever I need to unlock a frozen padlock in the winter.
Using rubbing alcohol on the skin can be dangerous, especially for children. It's toxic and can be absorbed through the skin, as well as inhaled.accidental isopropyl alcohol poisoning is common and the majority of cases are in children under 6 years old
My wife when pregnant lived with a bottle of alcohol to smell. She was on 2 different antiemetics and the alcohol helped her with the vomiting on her real bad days
I've been running a still and making moonshine for years. Trust me when I say that being able to make alcohol is going to be one of the best things you can do in any post-apocalyptic situation. So many uses. Plus it can be Bartered with
I’ve used it to prevent my windshield washer fluid sprayers from freezing - it works pretty well!
Also good for removing sticky labels, cleaning glasses and general degreasing.
"If it hurts it's good" - last time I smashed my thumb with a hammer I didn't think it was good.
It also can be watered down and used to loosen the leather when stretching and breaking in boots
I love when you name your videos like this. Now in the future when I could use one of these 16 tips I'll be able to find it super easy. Thank you for that sir!
Very helpful. Gonna go snag a couple bottles. Thanks Cody!
If you can’t find rubbing alcohol you can always go to your liquor store and buy Everclear. You can do all of the above with it and drink it.
Any strong liquor that doesn’t contain sugar should do, but 97% alcohol is preferred.
Note to self, decide to drink or treat before drinking it
Lol ever clear is only about 15 times the cost of isopropyl.
Or you could just make your own.
For sanitizing usage, you must have at least 65% alcohol. That would be 130 proof. Anything less than that cannot be relied upon for disinfection.
Degreasing and cleaning gun parts
Kerosene works wonders, and if your feeling adventurous, Mark Novak, who has an excellent gunsmithing channel here on you tube simply boils stuff out using plain water - it has the added advantage of converting red rust to blue, just follow up with a carding wheel. He uses a bunch of deep fryers filled with water for small parts.
What i use to clean my reloading dies
dexman9908 me too!
16:1 1 tablespoon (15ml) in 1 cup water (240ml) 8:1 2 tablespoons to one cup.
He clearly meant to say 2 Tbsp, since he had just said they are half an oz, then gave the water in half-ounces
@@remodz6385 figured I was not one to judge what he was thinking so I gave both. Hate to think of some one measuring 16 tbsp when they could a larger measure and make their life easier.
I learned something new. I always thought they called it rubbing alcohol because they would rub it on your skin before an injection, to clean the area. I didn't know about the sore muscle therapeutic aspect. 👍
Be careful when using alcohol to get water out of your ear. My cousin thought he had water in his ear and poured in some alcohol. Turns out his eardrum was perforated. He described the pain as one of the worst he’s ever encountered.
Everclear, 17 amazing facts.
Lots more expensive, but that's what I carry in my backpacking gear. All of the above uses, and it's not toxic to drink. So if absolutely necessary you can use it for an anesthetic as well.
I should have read the comments before I suggested Vodka for 17 uses
Everclear, and the other kinds of alcohol we drink is ethyl alcohol, not isopropyl. But that's a distinction I won't be stressing when the ATF finds my still
You can also mix it in with your washer fluid in your car so you can hit it in the morning to deice your windshield. During the winter I use only water and alcohol in my washer bottle. It actually works pretty good cleaning the windshield too!
Amazing!! Thank you, keep up the amazing work!!!❤️
Keep up all your hard work my friend .
I use it and table salt for cleaning my glass bong out weekly it works like a charm every time:)))
Haha hell yea.
Most excellent!
As a truck driver, alcohol is very useful during winter. Trucks use compressed air for braking and in the compressed air is moisture, moisture freezes therfore air lines and brakes will freeze up and be inoperable. I pour just a cap full into the air lines and it will melt the moisture in the lines freeing up the brakes! Works 👍
IPA is also great for removing ink stains from clothing and Sharpie pen ink. Great info, Thanks and God Bless!
I've used it as an emergency substitute for gasoline. It saved me from having to walk 5 miles several years ago.
I can't wait to see you use your snow bike!
Videos like this showing common items and uses are amazing!! Thank you
Literally the best part of this stuff is the removal of pine pitch from vehicles! Takes it right off and saves your paint. Also great for cleaning electronics.
Note: Before irrigating a wound Remove pants and under-ware
I poke a tiny hole with a needle in the tinfoil seal. Perfect size for most uses and really meters usage.
But I guess a sharpie works too lol!
I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for taking the time to create them.
I learned some new things. Thank you! 😊 You can also make your own hand sanitizer by mixing with aloe vera gel. Add a few drops of essential oil and you have great smelling sanitizer as well.
Learned when I was a kid to use clear ammonia on bee stings. Makes the sting go away almost instantly.
Does anybody use mud for bee stings? A trick my dad taught me. As the mud dries it pulls the venom with it
i use it to clean my electronics like my airpods and it doesn’t affect or damage them.
Yep you can use it to clean electronics. I use it all the time to clean mother boards and electrical contacts.
Yeah, 97% alcohol is perfect for electronics, because it doesn’t damage it like water does.
Back when iPhone had an actual home button, whenever the button became sticky, we would pour alcohol over the button and press it a few times to get the alcohol in there, then leave it to dry for a few minutes, then the button would work like normal again😄
Isopropyl is used to remove flux from circuit boards after you have done soldering.
We use it when building electronic boards all the time. Totally safe!
We use it to clean the avionics in aircraft
Great information Sir !!! Thanks and Blessings to you and your family !!
Dont know if you will see this but I really hope you do! I'm an automotive detailer and it is very good at taking off tree sap without scratching paint, apply it on a microfiber and rub the sap away, I use 90 for a quicker use but I'm sure either will work! Will definitely be a good tip in your living environment!
FYI, this 16 was taken from My Patriot Supply.
Pro tip: use 70% rather than 90% for disinfecting purposes it's far more effective
How when it has 20% more alchohole only it can be worst for skin
Very helpful info. Thank you! 💕🙏💕
I use it often for cleaning electronics! It works really well as a contact cleaner. I once repaired a water logged cb radio in a snowstorm at 2 am using the rubbing alcohol from the medical kit. That radio even still works.
My dog absolutely adores me, but if I put alcohol on his wound and then tried to sew him up, he would eat my face.
I've watched enough cowboy movies to know that Whiskey is always used when removing legs or bullets to disinfect the wound,,, and the patient can also bite down on the cork! And at a pinch you can even re-hydrate and drink the stuff!
The De-Icer... I haven’t heard of it being used to prevent frost but I have used it to apply onto frosted windows and de-ice the window that way.
Never have used it as a preventive for window ice ups. But I have used it for years to remove ice/frost instead of an ice/scrapper. Works great. I’m assuming due to the speed that running alcohol evaporates you would have to apply it often.
The concrete industry uses it to measure the air in concrete. My wife is it with peppermint oil to get rid of spiders and ants around the house.
I'll have to try that, every so often and explorers go on a rampage in my appt.
Peppermint oil works great to get rid of mice humanely.
I thought it was going to be about alcohol in whiskey. Foiled again!
Really fascinating set of ideas - thanks for sharing
just a quick note as chemist. Dont dilute your 70% IPA for desinfection purposes, you might want to dilute 90% solution to get around 70-80% as thats more optimal concentration. Too concentrated or to diluted solutions dont work optimaly.
Me: using vodka for everything.
Comrade Stalin would be proud
Works really well on pine pitch and taking the glue off from all those hateful stickers they put on everything
Very good info. I was aware or the common uses but not all. Thanks
Excellent video!! Lots of good new to me facts. You can also get water out of your ear with a very small volume of warm cooking oil if you don't have rubbing alcohol.
Do not use straight alcohol to clean an open wound. Besides hurting like a mofo, it will irritate and inflame the flayed tissue which will delay healing. Otherwise, learned some new stuff about it, good to know.
#12: correct but don’t use your wipers when the fluid has softened the ice on your windshield. The will rubber wear out in a minute
Alcohol breaks down the rubber
Unless you have the superior silicone wiper blades. Silicone isn't affected by IPA and it also puts a micro-thin layer over your windshield so that after using them enough simply driving at a high enough speed the water of rain and snow and ice rush off the glass as they cannot easily hold to the glass any longer. I love my PIAA wipers! Had them for 8 years and still working perfectly (because silicone doesn't dry out like rubber does). Imagine receiving at least 8 years from your wiper blades... It makes life so much easier!
I just bought that same Pendleton Board Shirt... And I LOVE it!!!
Thanks for the informative video!
I don't know why but watching today's episode really made me think of Mr. Wizard, any of you remember Mr. Wizard from back in the day?
Christophor S. Wilson mr wizard is the man that the poser Bill Nigh wishes he was.
Wizard FTW
@@thorzyan that is so true!
Yes I loved watching Mr. wizard as a kid. If you have Amazon prime, all his episodes are online. I still watch it with my kids and I’m still learning.
@@Random_DIY that is awesome I will have to check it out.
@@thorzyan When I hear "Mr Wizard" I always think of Don Herbert.
Not the best choice for wound cleansing, it can irritate the tissues, in a pinch of course its better than nothing.
I buy a couple of bottles of alcohol with my grocery list. Cody, I appreciate you sharing about all the useful information for using alcohol. I have always used it Full strength. I didn’t realize the different ratios. So I should keep this so I can remember ratios or different uses and save money. Thank you very much. God’s blessings to your family and subscribers.
thanks for the good info. love the tool collection. have not seen a bit and brace for years
never use it on a tick, when you use it on a tick it spits its venom, use a tickpen ;)
it literally was the number 1 thing that we couldnt get for months. it was in that high demand.
Same here. Fortunately I had literally just stocked up on rubbing alcohol, because I use it for everything, so I just shook my head while everyone went crazy😅
What it was actually scarcer than toilet paper?!
@@garethheathcote4988 I have had no trouble getting toilet paper at any point in 2020.
nice video , been watching for a while now , I like the fire building , chain sharping , and the home log mill using the 2x6 board as a guide .
Thank you very much for the good information may God bless your whole family
im into 3d printing, and use alcohol to clean the print bed daily.
Ok?
@@johncarpenter5415 the objective of my comment is that i am in agreeance in that isopropyl alcohol is indeed a versatile product.
Yeah it good for cleaning electronics I use it to clean my phone screen sometimes
@@johncarpenter5415 Shutup Jon
Exactly 👍
To the 1% reading this god bless, stay safe and have a wonderful day (my dream is to become a famous motovloger) Thanks ❤️❤️
Thanks bud. Good luck. I'm rooting for you!
this is a bot
Hey titus I thought I would see you here
God bless you, and may he keep you strong in these crazy times
Thanks for the helpful tips.
I use it in work for all sorts and use it at home too. We have the 90% stuff its great for cleaning. I've used it to wipe off surfaces before painting them or before applying vinyl wrap to get a good bond. Also great for cleaning off 40 year old gun grease from old air rifle internals that I'd been restoring. Ive always got some handy👍
Soon as we started getting hints of Covid out of China, I bought gallons of this stuff. Easy peasy no big deal at the time. Haven't regretted it at all.
Best not to use for tick removal. It makes the ticks regurgitate and that can more readily spread disease (babosis, limes, RMSF). Tick lasso is the best thing i have found to get all sizes of ticks off dogs
Wow that’s informative! Thanks n GOD BLESS!
Alcohol combines with any liquid, petroleum, non-petroleum, organic greases and oils and can be used as a dilution and/or carrier for other products. Combined 12:1 with pure lanolin, it makes a great cartridge case lube for resizing rifle and pistol cases prior to reloading. Just put into a spray bottle and lightly spray the cases on a cookie sheet before running them through the resizing die.
12 minute video posted 6 minutes ago and already has a downvote. Some people just have nothing better to do now don't they? Thanks for what I'm sure is a video I will enjoy Cody.
What do you always say about doing math on camera? Should be 16 Tbsp water to 2 Tbsp alcohol.
"I've never had Nausea, but next time I do"
I watch for the comedy.
You mean 8/1
I’m probably wrong about this but assuming you are using 99.9% alcohol with the above ratio you would have a roughly 12.5% alcohol mixture which is very weak. If I’m wrong, please be kind on the responses...
@@rwetmore2386 It doesn’t always need to be that strong.
Great video and thank you, I wanted to add what I use it for mostly and that's for cleaning and drying electronics. Make sure it's unplugged or the battery is out AND the capacitors are discharged BEFORE cleaning electronics. It works great to clean charging ports with a toothpick soaked in isopropyl. Just make sure it's all dry before you plug in. Ps if you have a disk player that won't read a disc,or that skips and stops when played with like like a DVD player or game console use a DRY Q-tip and gently clean the lens (small clear glass that reads the disc) it works every time but make sure it's a dry Q-tip.
As usual Cody, fantastic video !!!
Don’t drink it
Too late
Man if Cody can’t get 90% then no way I’ll find it lol.
Check Amazon - they have 99% 8 packs of quart bottles for 30 bucks.
I used isopropyl alcohol for cleaning tape recorder heads and the tape path the machine. Also for cassette recorders and tape cartridge machines. At the VOA studios they bought the alcohol in 5 gallon cans-all of us in the maintenance shop there had small bottles we filled and kept in toolboxes or field recording job kits. Now with digital-the use of alcohol has largely disappeared. Sad! Loved using the stuff as a “head” cleaner.
