is it safe to put ethanol ONLY based hand sanitizer in still

Post by jatgm1 »

i have a direct flow still made of pure stainless steel, it uses a water pump and ice water or water from a hose that is cold to keep it cool. if i distill ethanol based hand sanitizer, that contains no methanol am i correct in the assumption that it is actually safer and more efficient that distilling my mash because their not allowed to put methanol or anything harmfull to the body in the hand sanitizer because it makes contact with your body and will or will not most the chemical be left behind? i used a store brand version that said "compare to purell" is it not true only ethanol will leave the still as long as i stop collecting at 90 degrees Celsius? we are speaking hypothetically of course.
