Pure Ethanol
Some pure ethanol courtesy of a friendly distiller
Good for making shellac and other chemical mixtures.

IF I can't buy Everclear here in WA State, any chance of picking some up from you for my project of refinishing my granny's rocking chair? 
The leather for the seat is here and a good friend here at SRP is graciously guiding me with the wood stripping, prep and finish which will be using Shellac.

I use that to power my Pepsi-can backpacking stove. You could even run a top-fuel dragster on the stuff!

It will make for a beautiful French polish on furniture for certain. It is all about having the right alcohol to get a French polish right. I too have no use for it as part of a beverage.
