I use it to provide a hot clean flame for melting glue, or anything I dont want soot in.
Very satisfied with my new alcohol burner

Much nicer than my old burner. Off course it was 15 years+ old , full of hot melt and cap won't fit tite. The new shape is an improvement, less likely to tip over if accidentally hit.
Great tool

The young kids manage to break off many tips on the wood arrows.I can now taper and install a new tip at the club instead of bringing the arrows home, and they are back into shooting.

Using just a little wick, produces a good steady flame that does not produce black smoke. Too much wick and you will get black smoke and dancing flame.

Denatured alcohol is recommended only for use in the burner and it works very well. Dipping in water works fine you will have to wipe the excess water although. A candle will work but it will take longer due to the lower heat range.

I've used 91% rubbing alcohol in same burner and it worked fine. Check your % alcohol, 70% alcohol may not work. I also bought denatured alcohol which should also work.

No, but so long as the wick is barely exposed, which is how one wishes to run it, the fuel takes a long time to evaporate. The alcohol is really inexpensive anyway, especially when bought by the gallon at the paint store.

10 years ago
Methyl alcohol works well, and it is commonly available and reasonably inexpensive almost anywhere in Canada, as lacquer thinner, fondue fuel, and gas-line antifreeze. It may be also labelled as "methylated spirits" (although this could denote regular denatured alcohol), "methyl hydrate" (the most common usage), or methanol.
