Denatured alcohol available at home improvement stores sometimes is pure Ethanol. (but many times has some other alcohols mixed in to make it unfit to drink) Most states have controls on Ethyl alcohol at 100% (200 proof) so you wont see it sold anywhere. And transporting alcohol over state lines via shipping is illegal in most states so getting it shipped is not too likely.

Denatured alcohol is what you are going to need to look for and isnt hard to find, you can find it at Home Depot in the paint department. Otherwise you are going to need to stick with the highest proof of drinking alcohol you can find depending on your state.
