Ya, you can buy IPA in a pharmacy in Litre bottles. Or maybe it's 500ml.
Handiest (but not cheapest-per-litre) way of getting some for infrequent use.

Pharmacies usually have it. Get a big bottle, it has many uses.

Is that what they use for cleaning LCD screens and do you use it neat.

I thought you'd wouldn't use it on a lcd screen, just water and a chamois type cloth?

To clean screens I just use white vinegar in a spray bottle and a cloth.

Diluted or undiluted

Undiluted but if you like you can of course mix it 50/50, preferably with deionised water.

That mentions not to use vinegar but I've never had any issues ever.

Don't spray on the screen, spray the solution on the cloth and then wipe.
This way the screen won't get too "wet".

Isopropyl Alcohol
