BHO winterisation with ethanol (95%) based "equipment disinfection"?

Hello rollitup! Posting my first thread. I have two questions concerning winterisation:

1.
I have a bottle of 750ml equipment disinfection from the pharmacy containing 740g/kg ethanol and 63g/kg 2-popanol. Could this be a suitable substitute for 190 proof ethanol?

2.
If i use 60% (120-proof) ethanol from the liquor store, would it be the same as if i used 190 proof, but compensating by the amount of proof lost, e.g using approximately 1,5 times more off the 120 proof?(1,6*120=192). If so, would it effect the quality of the product?

I'd recommend posting this in the "concentrates and extracts" section, you'll get a lot more answers from people who actually know what they are talking about when it comes to this.

In my unprofessional opinion though, I would assume that it would be alright to make a tincture with as long as it only contains ethanol and isopropyl alcohol like you said.

120 proof is a bit low to make it efficient at extracting THC, I would go with something that contains at least 75% alcohol if you went with the liquor store option.

But like I said my knowledge is limited when it comes to this so i'd post this in the concentrates and extracts section instead if you want better answers
