Most rubbing alcohol is isopropyl alcohol but it can also be denatured
alcohol (ethanol with some bitter substance added to decrease the chances of
it being drunk). I am not aware of any rubbing alcohol having methanol.
Methanol is very toxic - causes blindness and death. Methanol is commonly
used as an antifreeze in windshield washer fluid (note the poison labels).

Do not use denatured alcohal to soak off paper from Plexiglas. I've had

Rubbing alcohol is methanol. Big difference from ethanol. That said, I
have no idea if methanol will harm plexi.
