I know this has been talked about, but I'm still a bit confused.  
 
I'm planning using an alcohol pepsi can stove this year.  I know I should use "denatured alcohol" as fuel, but other than going to a hardware store, how do I find it along the trail.  I had thought "Heet"- gasline antifreeze was what people used, but now I hear its not good idea to use Heet.   One of the reason I thought of using a alcohol stove was that gas line antifreeze is usually available at any gas stations and in small quantities- ie I don't have to buy a whole can.
 
Does anyone know what other products "denatured alcohol" is sold as? Since I'm not a chemist, Brand names would be most helpful. anyone have a top Ten or Top Five list?
thanks
Vivek
