Your recollection about denaturing is exactly correct. Ethanol will ONLY be sold as denatured due to alcoholic beverage taxes. Your non-denatured alternative is 200 proof alcohol sold for consumption, like the 190 proof Everclear. The Science Company's ethanol is denatured with isopropyl, so it's safe for our vinyl given the limited contact for which we will use it. Be careful of ethanol sold for burning in stoves or candles, it may be denatured with chemicals harmful to even limited contact with the vinyl.The link you provide for the ethyl alcohol (ethanol) from The Science Company via Amazon is the cheapest price for high quality ethanol that I was able to find. Other sources were much more expensive due to shipping costs for a hazardous/flammable chemical.
