Well, if I could afford Everclear, I'd drink it, not clean atomizers with it.
Check the liquor prices ova here in WA:

We have around 28% taxes on liquor, plus an additional tax rate for 1Liter and over too. And, our Everclear is crippled to 151 proof.
Wiping down drip tips with a paper towel dampened using 50% ABV Isoproypl Alcohol mixed half and half with water, then dried with a microfiber towel is not going to hurt a thing. It evaporates nearly instantly. Anything left is wiped away.
I suppose ya never used it for first aid either?
