You can get 100% denatured alcohol at any college campus chemical supply store. It's like 98% ethanol and 2% methanol (methanol will kill you whereas ethanol is what is in your Budweiser ... they do this to stop students from mixing it with mountain dew and fruit punch). I'd recommend using ethanol if you go with alcohol as it is less likely to KILL you. Heh. You normally can only buy it in 5 gal. bottles, though, which means you'll have a huge supply on hand. The good part is that it normally only costs about $20 per 5 gal. bottle.

edit: I'm not going off of freezing points or any other data to come to that conclusion. I'm going off of sheer toxicity. Methanol can wreak havoc on your liver and can be absorbed transdermally.
