Coles Smart Buy Methylated Spirits / Turpentine

it's metho, dummy – coles metho is ethanol plus denatonium ... like practically everybody else these days. if it doesn't "work", you should probably state what you mistakenly used it for. certainly it's not a good drink, bleach, paint thinner, douche or nail polish remover. but if you're competent to use metho, it should work just fine as metho, as long as you can work out how to remove the top

Not good at all – Thats all not good at all..I try this because it cheap but the worst thing is its smell so bad and different.so bad product..cheap but bad quality.Better to buy more expensive brand
