A thin layer of water might repel a drop of alcohol, however rubbing alcohol is miscible in water in larger quantities. Isopropyl alcohol, of the form C3H7OH, is what we know as rubbing alcohol. The repulsion could be because of the propyl group, however the hydroxyl group should form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with water.
