I believe methanol is absorbed through the skin much more readily than gasoline and is therefore a greater danger.

Who is taking a bath in it? If there is a large accidental exposure, all you need is water.

I think one of the points earlier was that while methanol is toxic in high concentrations, it is harmless at low concentrations.
