    I would NOT use rubbing alcohol as it contains perfumes and oils intended to ease the discomfort (the odor, and the extreme skin drying) of an alcohol rub. (This is also why I never used it to clean tape heads.) Instead I use alcohol labeled as "isopropyl alcohol" (IPA for short). Drugstores sell it OTC at both 91% and 99% concentration.
