Methanol would do as well but is more poisonous.


Careful with methanol - it's a more potent solvent in general than ethanol or isopropanol. Lots of rubber and plastic compounds are attacked by methanol.

Additionally, the H in the OH group isn't held onto as tightly as in the other organic OH compounds, so methanol is corrosive to metal.

It's also a middlin' good oxidizer   for some metals.
