Now I'm curious. Is this as part of some new product development or is it a standard requirement when performing certain electrical installations?
My mind is conjuring up all sorts of possible scenarios, many of which feature a lab, white coats, Tefal foreheads and nervous white bunny rabbits!
deano.
At the risk of being flamed as a pedant, the IUPAC name is Propan-2-ol

You missed my point.
Of course water is OK.
My usage case is for when water or the possibility to wash hands is not conveniently available.
Even without the obvious touching of certain foods which one probably shouldn't be eating anyway, I have seen differences of up to 2 mmol/l which is obviously very significant.
PTB = Pooh Ther Bear. His connection with sticky stuff (aka hunny) is legendary.
Boots "Moist Lens Wipes" contain propan-2-ol.
Moist Cleaning Tissues made by "Selles Medical Ltd" of Hull, as included in first-aid kits, just claim to be Alcohol Free (mmmm - free alcohol!).
I think I'd rather just drink the alcohol and forget about the grease...

Yes. My 500 ml bottle of Isopropyl alcohol has this in brackets. This amount certainly goes a long way. I've had it for some years.

As stated in a previous message: My 500 ml bottle of Isopropyl alcohol has the above in brackets.

Sorry but you will have to remain curious. It is a distinct problem for me and when I have solved it for myself, may have wider applications. There are some things I do not put on usenet.
The problem with Swarfega is that you have to use more soap to wash the Swafega off 'cos it sticks like syrup.
No the IUPAC name is propan-2-ol
Washing up liquid and sugar is the best hand cleaner I know.
That has not been my experience. I rub it well in, then rinse it off with plenty of water.

In my Ampex days they didn't.
They used to use IPA to clean rubber drive rollers.
They used Head drum cleaner (based on Xylene) proprietory to the video recorder manufacturer to clean the head drum.
They used an abrasive cleaning tape to clean the video head itself which was *far* too delicate to touch.
I don't think 37.5% alcohol vodka will be concentrated enough for effective degreasing.
You can buy IPA in an aerosol at Maplins in the Aire Valley Road shopping centre.
You can buy pre-soaked disposable pads but they work out expensive if you are using them every day. So just spray IPA on a paper tissue.

Yebbut I wouldn't advise a diabetic to use these prior to checking their blood sugar, though sucrose won't react with the testing reagents...
