i dont think that any liquid is good for the device. try basic trouble shooting restart, reset, restore as new

No, absolutely not! Do not put any liquid into your iPhone. Pure alcohol would be iffy, and any liquid that contains oils, scents and other addititives such as perfume would be almost guaranteed to damage your iPhone permanently.

what you need to do is hole down the home and lock button untill the screen turns off. keep holding the home button untill it turns on. if that doesnt work try again. usually hold for about 10-20 seconds.

do this to fix frozen screen or unresopnsive.
