Explanation:
Non sarà un tampone imbevuto d'alcool che serve a sgrassare la superficie su cui va applicato l'accrocco? È difficile pensare ad altri significati!

Explanation:
usato da solo *prep pad* poteva anche essere una tavola grafica (cf. www.tecnesys.it/t_web/tecnesys/scuola/lavagna4.htm )

invece, il termine *alcohol prep pad* si riferisce normalmente al tampone o alla garza di cotone, imbevuti di alcool, utilizzati in ambito sanitario ("prep" sta per "preparazione" della pelle prima dell'iniezione - in ambito medico)

qua si tratterà quindi probabilmente di un tampone di cotone (che serve a pulire ad es. il monitor?)
non vedo altra spiegazione!
