Product Information
Full details
The Palm Safe 99.9% Isopropyl Alcohol is designed for homeowners, hobbyists, and professionals seeking a high-purity solvent for sanitizing, cleaning, and industrial degreasing. Its primary benefit lies in its exceptional 99.9% concentration, which ensures rapid evaporation and residue-free results on sensitive surfaces like electronics; however, users must exercise caution due to its high flammability and strong odor, requiring use in well-ventilated areas only.

FAQs
Can this be used for medical sterilization?
While this is a high-purity IPA suitable for many cleaning tasks, it is not labeled as medical-grade disinfectant for use on skin or open wounds.
Is this product safe for touchscreens?
Generally, 99.9% IPA is effective for electronics, but consult the manufacturer's manual for your specific device as some screen coatings may be damaged by alcohol.
How should I dispose of empty bottles?
Ensure the bottle is completely empty and follow your local recycling guidelines for HDPE plastic containers.
Does the 99.9% purity mean it will not freeze?
Isopropyl alcohol has a very low freezing point, but you should still store it in a temperature-controlled environment to maintain product integrity.
Can I mix this with water?
Yes, it is miscible with water, though adding water will reduce the concentration and effectiveness of the solvent.
What is the shelf life?
The product has a shelf life of 2 years from the date of manufacture, provided it is kept in its original sealed container.
Troubleshooting
Solution evaporating too quickly during cleaning
Apply the IPA directly to a clean cloth rather than the surface to control the amount and rate of application.
Surface clouding after application
The plastic may be sensitive to high-purity IPA. Always test on a small, hidden area first and use more sparingly if clouding occurs.
Strong smell lingering in the room
Increase airflow by opening windows or using a ventilation fan during and immediately after the cleaning process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Usage requires minimal setup due to the integrated funnel-neck bottle, but safety is paramount. Ensure the workspace is well-ventilated to prevent the buildup of fumes. When using on plastics, perform a spot test on an inconspicuous area first, as high-concentration alcohol can occasionally soften or cloud certain sensitive polymers. Store the bottle in an upright position in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and open flames. The product has a 2-year shelf life when properly sealed. Always replace the cap tightly after every use to maintain the 99.9% purity level and prevent accidental evaporation.
