Methylated spirits, also known as denatured alcohol, are a mixture of ethanol with additives like methanol to make them unfit for consumption. They are widely used as a solvent for cleaning surfaces, removing grease, and thinning paints and varnishes. Additionally, they serve as an efficient fuel for burners and stoves. However, due to their toxicity, they should be handled with care, ensuring proper ventilation and avoiding ingestion or prolonged skin contact.
