[Swegly]

Hi, Im am located in sweden and I was wondering if anybody knows where I can buy some iso alchohol for when I install my h100i. I cant find it anywhere.

Go to your local pharmacy and ask for some, that's how I got them in stockholm.

also h100i comes with pre applied paste

You can get it at most PC outlets, Arctic cooling and Phobya are the brands I usually use. Otherwise a pharmacy or supermarket will get you what you need. Supermarkets usually have 70 percent alcohol though so if you get that you'll have to be very careful because it's still conductive

 

You'd need the 90+% ones. Should be able to get them from the local pharmacy, hardware or electronics store.

In most EU countries you can only get 80%+ alchocol only at pharmacies, since idiots drink them

I've allways used 70% with no problem

[JupiteL]

I bought one at drugstore, it's not hard to find at all.

If you cant get it you could also use ArctiClean.

I use it as it cleans really good+ its cheap

probably cheaper to get a bottle of alch then this

In my case it wasnt..

A bottle of iso-propyl alcohol was around 25-30€ at my local pharmacy, while this was only 5€

that's abit over expensive for pure alch, must be the import tax or they sucked you into buying the expensive one

In soviet slovenia everything is more expensive especially if you buy stuff at the pharmacy..

[Constantine]

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's how it goes in Aus too. We have 70 percent at supermarkets, which can be used if you can't source anything better, but has to be used with a fair amount of caution because it is still conductive

I'm pretty sure it has additives in it over here to make people sick if they drink it.

I think jaycar or bunnings should have them

[carolkarine]

Has anyone ever used everclear? That's 185 proof, or at least it is here.

[Flying freak]

In a pinch just grab the closest alcohol swab (first aid kit);

 

it will contain the perfect amount of alcohol, and its lint free! (around here you can buy boxes of 100 for 2$)

I have lived in america for my whole life untill a year ago when I moved to Sweden so Im allowed to say that from my experience going to school in both places... american kids tend to do alot more stuff to show off for their friends such as drinking rubbing alcohol

I just use Acetone/nail varnish remover.

 

Any solvent should work.

True but be awere not to spill it on to any plastis. Acetone is very agressive on plastics. I use it to don't get me wrong but you have to be a bit more carefull with it.
