I like how Christie gives you an alchohol swab with each xenon bulb in case the bulb is touched. Can I buy these at a local store? What type of store? And does it matter what kind of alchohol I use? (I don't know what kind is on those Christie swabs, but I've always been told to use denatured alchohol.)---------- This one time, at projection camp, I cleaned a xenon bulb with alchohol, and it was SOOOO funny!

I'm not going to be using them on a significant scale. Just to clean a bulb if it is touched. Speaking of first aid, I didn't even think of that. Although they don't need to be clinically sterile, would those work?
