Are you being serious? If you are actually scared of some imagine taste of rubbing alcohol you can run a decent amount of water through the piece and there, your imagined problem is solved. Isopropyl alcohol and ethanol alcohol are different things in general, it has 0 to do with the government poisoning it to stop you from getting drunk for free. Do you actually think that the people who manufacture Isopropyl alcohol don't pay taxes to the government. Those taxes payed to the govt. by the manufacturers are passed on to us regardless of what kind of alcohol it is. Why the fuck would you be buying salt and rubbing alcohol from a headshop? That is one of the most retarded things I've heard on this forum. I just googled table salt and rubbing alcohol prices. You can get 4 lbs of salt and 16 oz of rubbing alcohol for a total of $12.21. That's some serious big bucks right there! If you really think that's a lot of money I don't know what to tell you. Did you even think before you posted this, or were you just mad that I have a better technique than you?
Oh yeah, you're so smart dude! Which of those 60 agents in the US is the substance "denatured?" Are all of them animal cruelty free? The other Canna is a chemist, maybe he can enlighten you on why he said toxic chemicals. The government is your friend. I'm just a dumb ass who never knew your technique.
Headshops 420 cleaner uses non-denatured alcohol which is allowed because the amount of salt pretty much denatures it.

" Since many
governments rely on the heavy taxation of these spirits,
denaturing some alcohol for industrial and household use can
allow the selective taxation of only the ethanol that is intended
for human consumption. If the denaturing process was not
enforced, people could purchase and consume cheap, pure
ethanol that was intended for industrial use and effectively
bypass various liquor laws and taxes."
"In the United
States, the government has around 100 different ingredients that
are allowed in denatured alcohol in addition to about 60 specific
formulas."
" One of the main denaturing agents that is commonly added to
ethanol is methyl alcohol, which is why the term "methylated
spirits" is sometimes used. Methanol, which is made from a
variety of feedstocks such as wood and coal, is highly toxic"
