Hi Balint,
I think it was just because the isopropyl is cheap and easy to get at the
corner drugstore (not quite what that sounds like, of course, maybe you
say "apothecary"?), even the supermarket, and seems to do the job OK. A
pint of rubbing alcohol is about 69 cents... and you could use it for
after-shave, too.
The idea, as I understood it, is simply to speed up drying -- but maybe
Sandy has another idea ..... For instance, why acetone?
