Denatured alcohol is usually ethyl alcohol with some trace of denaturing
agent added but it could be wood alcohol (methyl alcohol). You have to
read the label. I have seen it also in drugstores. You can buy grain
alcohol in a liquor store and it is ethyl alcohol with nothing added
but water. 100 proof would be half alcohol and half water. 200 proof
would be all alcohol but I don't know if they sell it. Vodka would be
a pretty good substitute. If the carbon prints don't come out you
can always drink the rest of the vodka. ;-)
