DENATURED ALCOHOL..in Ottawa?

I have been looking in stores for denatured alcohol,and can't seem to locate any in my area stores.I was wondering if any of the Ottawa guys know of a "for sure" place to pick up this stuff. To let you all know , I've tried my area Home Depot,Canadian Tire and Home Hardware Stores.I would really prefer to use this substance over methyl hydrate.. I could really appreciate the info on this .. gettin down to "the time" ..as always ,thanks ahead of time!..misterstyx69

My advice would be to call up some art stores in the area, a lot of them carry it though it would be more expensive, no harm in checking.

yeah, they put in some methanol and methyl compounds in there so that you can't drink it for pleasure, you just die instead...

er, well anyways. Dave, i thought i already gave you some suggestions on where to find them? didn't work out i guess?

they use this stuff as a cleaner for the most part...sometimes people buy it as stove fuel for camping.
it is usually sold in pretty big quantities...not like small bottles. so try places that sell things more as bulk items...
