2.Distilled water or bottled water

3.A bottle with a push top that will spray the mixture in a form of mist.

Step 1 How to dilute isopropyl alcohol

Ok open the spray bottle and fill it half with isopropyl alcohol, then fill the other half with the bottled water or distilled water.Do not use normal tap water as the minerals can leave streaks and patches on your screen.

Well you and they should; ) Should be in your shop's chemicals cabinent next to the acetone, baking soda, mineral oil and vinegar. Much of the old tech still works pretty well.

if you're talking about isopropyl alcohol, it's just the fancy scientifical name for rubbing alcohol, although the stuff from drug stores is usually diluted a little more and in much smaller bottles than the jug in his picture

While "rubbing alcohol" contains isopropyl alcohol, it generally contains lubricants and other ingredients that makes it unsuitable for critical cleaning purposes, as the other ingredients can remain after the alcohol evaporates. I'm over 21 so I keep Everclear around for critical cleaning, but I understand ethyl alcohol shouldn't be use in this application.

i did not know that, i always figured that whatever was left over after the 70 some% isopropyl alcohol was mostly water to keep it from totally killing when applied to a cut or whatever. everclear, i never would have though of that, although here in PA only the lower proof version is available, which by my educated guess, probably isn't much better than rubbing alcohol, but i'm under 21 so i can't really get it myself anyway.

Some bottled water is likely to contain as much mineral content as your tap water, some battled water have minerals added to "enhance" the taste. A gallon of distilled water is cheap and likely to last a long time.
