Yes, it has to be 60% or higher in order to be effective. Ethyl alcohol has another more common name: grain alcohol. That's the stuff in Everclear 190 and all other booze. It is the type of alcohol most commonly used in sanitizers, which is why so many people keep saying if they can't find sanitizer to buy grain alcohol from the liquor store and dilute it with aloe vera.
