Alcohols like propanol and isopropyl alcohol are versatile solvents used to remove a variety of stains, including those from sweat, grass, markers, rust, resin, ink, grease, beets, fruit, soda, popsicles, and liquor.
When diluted, alcohol can also be used as a disinfectant, making it a useful tool for cleaning and sanitizing surfaces.
Important precautions
Take care: on acetate fabrics, always use alcohol in a diluted form to avoid damage.
