The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    regular 70% is ok, but the 91% is much better. The 70% leaves too much residue in my opinion; the 91% evaporates much better, leaving the surface cleaner. But yeah, as long as it is an isopropal mixture, and not make up remover (which may have other added ingredients which you do NOT want), you are ok.
