Go to the liquor store and buy Purol. Why do you need isopropyl? It is simply alcohol with a bad taste added.

just get isopropanol 91 or 99
Safeway has it for~$8 a gallon.
in my area i go to Randalls.
other stores carry 91, 91 and better isnt used medically, well not fpr traditional wound cleansing. more electronics and applications where no residue is desired
@hotrodharley
i hope you were joking.
you have to know more chemistry than that, i sill have some faith in our education system
there's no need to get the strongest concentration. what advantages does that provide?
ethanol isnt bad, its usually alot dirtier and the polarity, ionizing properties, boiling point and general stripping power is different.
isopropanol for me is a perfect balance between etoh and butane, not requiring winterization but better yield and cleaner than etoh

Pretty much any Pharmacy would have 99% IPA
I own a screen printing company and buy mine from my suppliers but back before I got into this business I would get the 99%IPA at the pharmacy.
It's behind the counter so you have to ask for it. Just tell them you are cleaning computer parts with it if they ask.
