MG Chemicals 99.9% Isopropyl Alcohol Electronics Cleaner, 475 mL Liquid Spray Bottle

I love these MG guys so far - I have had two difficult to source products from them delivered non-nonsense to my door. IPA (propan-2-ol to gie it it's proper UPAC name) is the most useful cleaning solvent for electronics on Planet Earth. It is one of God's greatest gifts to engineers. It is just agressive enough to remove a wide range of muck from your work / item / nuisance in the making / spectacles - for example excess flux or solder paste, semi-permanent marker, permanent labels / adhesive, finger print grease - without attacking the product itself. It is not conductive, so no short circuit risk and evaporates to nothing (sole exception - the coating on some cheap keyboards seems to go white if you clean with IPA. I do not want to know what they put on them). IPA used to be widely available but now is pretty difficult to get hold of. Some silly nonsense about it being highly flammable and liable to make you drunk / dead if you breath a lot of it in. MG to the rescue - they supply this essential fluid in good quantity and in a pump dispenser that is much more controllable and less wasteful than an aerosol. How about one for the environment guys? Collect the dispenser and reuse / refill them? That would make the product perfect.

This is good stuff. I ordered it on the 26th August and it arrived 27th August (though to be fair, Amazon had it in stock at the time, but now it seems to be 2-4 weeks delivery). Great for general cleaning, but for me I use it to clean E cig equipment. Evaporates off fast, so you can use it for cleaning electronic equipment (make sure the power is off when using). Good size, good price, 99.9% pure and smells lovely(don't sniff too much or you'll go lightheaded and may fall over). Would I recommend to friends and family... yes Would I buy again ... yes Thanks for reading, and I hope some information was useful. It is was, I'd appreciate a click on "yes" against "Was this review helpful to you" below.

This doesn't taste quite as good as Absolut, but it gets the job done. It's very thin and mixes well, so I'd suggest using 1 parts IPA to 4 parts coke/orange juice to water it down a bit and help minimise chemical burns in your throat. I'll add that I also used this to clean my laptop keyboard, and it worked a treat, so this stuff really is quite versatile!

You know when you remove one of those clear sticky labels off of something and it leaves all of that horrible sticky mess on the on the product this is the thing that you need to remove that mess apart from anything else it can clean most any item and is very safe to use it is also good to use on your skin if you get a cut to clean your cut safely how any house can operate correctly without this product in it I do not understand? it's amazing

I bought this mainly for cleaning and maintenance work and it did exactly what I expected it to do. The spray bottle was convenient to use and made it easy to apply the isopropyl alcohol where I needed it without making a mess. The high purity was also reassuring for electronics and hobby use. My only real criticism is that it felt a little expensive compared to buying larger bottles of isopropyl alcohol separately, although the packaging and convenience do make it easier to use. Overall, it's a good product that worked well, but whether it's worth the extra cost will depend on how much value you place on the spray bottle and convenience.

Very reasonable price and really good for cleaning off sticky residues. I have also used it to clean various electrical devices e.g Laptop, phone and so on, i just sprayed a little onto a lint free cloth and found it worked wonders. Also works very well at finding any little nicks or cuts on ones hands! OUCH!

Great stuff, cleans sticky surfaces well! I've already used it to remove some nightmare stickers from a few things (the type of stickers that leave 90% of the gluey paper still on the surface when removed). Soaking the gluey mess with this and giving it a scrub with a non-scratch scrubber removed it clean off. However, I have also found the isopropyl alcohol ideal for cleaning my 3d printer's print bed between prints.

Pure IPA, very useful for cleaning car panels after polishing to remove excess oils etc. Because of the 99.9% purity it just evapourates, leaving no residue.

In my search for cleaning rosin flux off circuit boards, I tried several aerosol and spray "flux cleaners" and 70-80% store-brand isopropyl alcohol. Everything just seemed to make an even bigger sticky mess that spread over the entire board, my hands, the table I was working on. Not happy. Then I tried this 99.9% isopropyl with a different thought / method. You HAVE TO BE OKAY with creating a mess first. So what I started doing was spraying the isopropyl on the board and using a toothbrush or acid brush to brush the solder joints. Then [and here's the trick] use a paper towl or lint-free Kimtech wipe to blot up the worst of the liquid/flux mixture before it dries. Instead of rubbing the paper towel or wiping across solder joints and having it shred to bits (also ensuring you'll slice into your fingers) -- wear some plastic gloves and "roll" the paper towel or Kimtech wipe across the pcb or blot it. You just want to quickly absorb the bulk of the liquid mess after brushing. So okay, you do this once and the board looks WORSE than when you started. Well, the trick is to not care about that. Just continue spraying the solder joints with the isopropyl, brushing and blotting with a new piece of paper towl or Kimtech wipe. After 3-4x quick cleanups, you'll start seeing a shiny board. It usually only takes 3-4x rounds to get most of the flux off the board. Just thought I'd save some people a ton of grief by mentioning what took me months or years to ultimately figure out. You'll drive yourself nuts if you think a single spray and brush of anything is going to remove flux from hundreds of solder points on a board in one shot. I'm sure naphtha is the preferred method by many for flux removal, but I don't like to mess with inhaling the fumes or take the chance of anything flammable -- plus I can't imagine that's good if you get it on your skin. For smaller boards I have an ultrasonic cleaner and that works well as long as the components can be submerged without damage, but for larger boards or components that can't be submerged, the isopropyl brush & blot method is my go-to. You just have to put yourself in a "zen state" of not caring what the board looks like and go through a few rounds isopropyl cleanup and you're done!
