Default light bulbs and rubbing alcohol?

just want to know. If I wipe the 9006 light bulbs with cotton and rubbing alcohol. Can I put them in the car right away or would I have to wait for it to dry completely?

alcohol evaporates very quickly, put them in right away

i wouldnt even bother tryin to clean the bulbs, they have some kind of gas in there, so tryin to clean might even ruin them faster.

you wipe bulbs with alcohol after you have touched them by accident or somehow gotten the bulb dirty. Nobody cleans bulbs just to clean them.

Thank you!!! The alcohol doesn't hurt the bulbs....the oil on your fingers will hurt the life expectancy of them. Go ahead and clean them, the alcohol will dry before you can put them in.
