I bought a 5 gallon thing of 100% methyl achohol ($40 bucks) and mix it with distilled water ($1.50).
Can adjust by weight how much i want as a mix but so far doing 50/50 mix cause my area is very dry.
If i did the math i think i get around 8 or 9 gallons of 50/50 mix for around $50 total.

I had to find a racing store that sold the stuff by searching google and calling numbers. I would just call around , and if that person doesnt have it, im sure they can point you in the right direction.

ive only used around 2 gallons of methyl so far since buying the 5 gallon thing back in Nov of last year. lol
