Re: rubbing alcohol (2oz spraybottle) dangerous to keep in car?



Since I am rather lazy I often leave a 2 litre container of
methanol/nitromethane in my car for weeks at a time - and where i live it
gets hot, 35 to 40+c day after day. So far no probs, and I have ben doing
this for about 3 years now - my car is insured though

I find that rubbing alcohol (70%) in a small spray bottle comes in
handy for cleaning various things (grease on hands, sunglasses, food
stains on clothes and many more).
I keep a small 2oz spray bottle in my car's center console.
I was wondering if this is dangerous as rubbing alcohol is flammable,
even though its a small amount.
My concern is if the car is left in the hot sun on a hot day
(temperatures in the southwest can broil a car interior), that even the
small amount could ignite or explode.
Thanks
