I buy mine at Lowes. It's great for removing glue residue.

Go to any hardware store. Its used as a  paint thinner and such, not pharmaceutical

The way I understand it is they "denature"(add non-ingestable chemicals)to grain alcohol so it can be sold unlicensed.... Phil

Denatured alcohol is ethanol made undrinkable. Is there a reason you specifically need denatured?  

Go to Lowes or a camping store and get stove alcohol.  Also, paint thinner solvent alcohol is denatured.

What are you using it for?
There may be other alcohols that would work well for your needs that are easier to find. Also, there are umpteen different formulations of denatured Ethanol.

I might be able to set you up with some.
I have isopropanol, Methanol, and one form of denatured ethanol in 55gal drums.

I use methanol in a metal top from a Hoppes solvent bottle.

I would think denatured or methanol would work fine.

We sell methanol for $5.75/16oz. I could put some denatured or methanol in a bottle for you.
As you know the shipping kills. I can give you the alcohol, but shipping would cost around $9 (certified box etc) or more if it has to go to a residental address. It needs to be shipped UPS as it's flammable.
Let me know.

Rubbing alcohol has to be 90% to burn...denatured gives a stronger flame and I clean my shafts with it before fletching as it leaves no residue.
Bowhunting is "KILL and EAT" not "Catch and Release".....Semper Fi!

Dirtybird

sherman williams has it as well

ChuckC

look at the car products called "Heet".  They have methanol and ethanol versions if I recall correctly

Use stove alcohol (aka "Camping Alcohol").  Rubbing alcohol is 50% water.  For a lamp 91% isopropyl from a drug store will work, but the stove alcohol will be 60% cheaper.  You can also burn paint-store type solvent alcohol.

Heet in the yellow bottles is ethanol - use this for burners.

Heet in the red bottle is methanol - don't use this for burners if you're in any kind of shelter at all, it'll give off toxins as it burns.

For large scale Ethanol/denatured alcohol almost every wallyworld and hardware store out there has a product called SLX in the paint thinner aisle - that's denatured alcohol.

Rubbing alcohol has water in it, will cause spitting and other issues unless it's above 90%.
