Methylated Spirits Where To Buy

Hi,
Over the recent covid-19 outbreak, there was a shortage of methylated Spirits and I was wondering where in Victoria still had stock Bunnings or Officeworks would be fine, thanks

    Pretty sure I saw some at the Bunnings on Ferntree Gully Rd, Pinewood earlier this week. It was in the paint section

    If you are wanting to make home-made hand sanitizer, don't use methylated spirits, but rather use isopropyl alcohol.

    Bunnings sell it, and there are plenty of sellers on eBay selling in bulk.

    I bought some in BCF for use in my Trangia

      Thanks but my nearest BFF with stock is Taylor’s lakes, more than 50ks away,

        Shame your friends live so far away. That’s taking social distancing to the max.

    Try BigW, Coles, Woolworths, camping stores, paint stores, etc. All should have stock.

    Using methylated spirits is fine for hand sanitizer. I contacted the maker of Diggers and they confirmed they don't add methanol like some makers in other countries do.

    I went to the chemist today and asked the assitant "What kills the Corona Virus?"

    She replied "Ammonia Cleaner"

    I said "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you worked here"

    Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions.
    I have now picked up 1litre (max limit) at my local Paint Spot of $3.74 for my 3D printers bed.
    Thanks again! Stay safe
