Methyl-hydrate alcohol is also known as methanol. It works fine for cleaning but the vapors from it are more toxic and less pungent that iso-alcohol so be careful with it.
Thanks for that information. I guess that eliminates the methyl-hydrate for my intended purposes. I'll kidnap a Costco member and get some more isopropyl alcohol.Note: make sure to wear gloves (as well as having good ventilation) when using methy alcohol, also commonly called methanol. It can be absorbed through the skin and is quite toxic compared to isopropyl alcohol.
I use to get the 99.X laboratory grade stuff where I worked. That was much easier.
