:ty:, Regdog. This is handy (sorry :e2paperba ) information. :applause: Long before coronavirus reared its ugly head, we bought a couple huge jugs of hand sanitizer gel on sale at Amazon. It's good to know it doesn't contain methanol.

There likely more than a few people who can't see that forum for one reason or another. Any chance of reproducing the list here?

As so often happens these days, the burden of investigation is always put on the consumer. We are made our own watchdogs.

One day I was cleaning my blinds which had some stains on them and regular windex wasn't cutting it. I experimented with some hand sanitizer and boy did that get the stains out fast! I never used it again except for deep cleaning.

It's all about solvents and what dissolves into them. Windex is a water based solvent, but also has a small amount of alcohol and some surfactants.
In 2009, S.C. Johnson started publishing ingredients for all of its products, including Windex.[8] The S.C. Johnson website lists Windex's ingredients as water, 2-hexoxyethanol, isopropanolamine, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, lauramine oxide, ammonium hydroxide, fragrance, and Liquitint sky blue dye.[9] An alternative variant also for household use cites water, hexoxyethanol, isopropanolamine, ammonium hydroxide, sodium C10-C16 alkylbenzenesulfonate, lauramine oxide, sodium xylene sulfonate, colorants, and fragrances.

Hand sanitizers are alcohol based.
