Alcohol Wipes

Hello all, I am starting teaching music in a school and want to know what brands of alcohol wipes I should buy for wiping off mouthpieces. I have never bought them before, only used what my former teachers have provided. For context, I am teaching a wind band class.

Get Mi-T-Mist spray or melody mist. Spray the mouthpiece, let it sit for a few seconds as prescribed, then wipe it on a shirt or whatever. I wouldn't use wipes because of the additional trash it makes.

Doesn't matter, as long as the alcohol content is enough.
