Denatured alcohol is available quite readily from most hardware stores and Walmart. It's typically in the paint section. Additionally, some automotive stores (and Walmart) carry Heet (in the yellow bottle), which works really well as an alternative.

Grab it at any Home Depot or Lowes int the paint department. It is easy to find in the states.
