No, Isopropyl alchohol tends to make natural hair bristles brittle and may damage synthetics (I adamantly do not use a synthetic brush for anything.) Mineral spirits can be effective but the simplest solution is plain ol' dish soap, bar soap, or for heavly used brushes, Murphy's Oil Soap. For brushes that have been "bagged" overnight but not dried out you can also use GoJo Pumice hand cleaner to get most of the paint out. One key tip is to hold the end of the bristles and rotate the brush while holding the ends of the bristles. This mechanism forces the soap up into the bristles just as the paint\varnish\stain gets worked into the brush. You can soak a brush overnight in a cup of Murphey's also to help clear out more of the paint. I have used Purdy bushes and with a routine of cleaning them with everyday hand soap and occasional Gojo Pumice hand cleaner have had burshes (sash and trim) last 2-3 years. Oil based products you should use regular mineral spirits\denatured alchohol but rubbing alcohol in my observations tends to damage brushes. This may simply be a result of the ratio (most bottles are 70%) but this is mearly my experience.
When used rubbing alcohol is a fairly safe cleaning agent. The main problem its effectiveness as a solvent, sometimes it will destroy the item when trying to clean the item. It is not for some surface. Rubbing alcohol should always be used in a well ventilated area. Keep rubbing alcohol away from painted surfaces, shellac, lacquer, and some man made fabrics.
Rubbing alcohol is a good liquid to use in a simple thermometer because it expands when heat ia added to it. When cold temperatures are added to it, it regroupes.

No, because peroxide is not a solvent and would not mix with paint.

Yes, you can clean a dirty phone with rubbing alcohol. Make sure to use a cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol to wipe down the surface of your phone. Be careful not to apply the alcohol directly to ports or openings to prevent damage.
To clean paint brushes used with acrylic paint effectively, first rinse the brushes in warm, soapy water. Gently massage the bristles to remove paint. Rinse thoroughly and reshape the bristles. For stubborn paint, use a brush cleaner or rubbing alcohol. Repeat until the brush is clean, then let it dry completely before storing.
Rubbing alcohol is commonly used as a disinfectant to clean surfaces and kill bacteria. It can also be used to clean minor cuts and scrapes to prevent infection. Additionally, rubbing alcohol can help to remove adhesive residue or clean electronics.
Yes, isopropyl alcohol can be used interchangeably with rubbing alcohol for cleaning purposes. Both are effective disinfectants and can be used to clean surfaces.
I use a soft cloth and rubbing alcohol. Q'Tips for the tight spots.
a soft cloth and maybe some rubbing alcohol
To clean a thermometer with rubbing alcohol, it is generally recommended to use enough alcohol to wet a cotton ball or pad. You can then gently swab the thermometer with the alcohol-soaked cotton to disinfect it before rinsing with water.
you can use any of these: rubbing alcohol, Goof Off, WD40, hair spray, or Mr. Clean (rubbing alcohol would most likely be the best to use) hope that helps :)
If you did I would rinse them very well.
