Alternative automotive uses for surplus 80% alcohol hand sanitizer?

Leftover? I’m still using it and was using it before the pandemic.

I keep a very small bottle of Purell in each coat pocket, plus a large one in one of the cup holders of my car. The stuff that I periodically pour into drains is some cheapo junk that doesn’t contain any glycerin or aloe, and it really messed-up my hands by drying the skin excessively.

I tried cleaning a window as a test and it leaves a film so that is a no go for windshield washer.

@VDCdriver

Make sure that you check the ingredients. Besides the alcohol, many–perhaps most–hand sanitizers contain either glycerin or aloe so that they don’t dry-out your skin excessively, and you wouldn’t want to smear-up your windshield with either of those ingredients.

I hate it when I’m right.
