Walking/Hiking Answers: How to prevent blisters

Got an answer to the following question?

How To Prevent Blisters

I have heard that rubbing surgical spirits into you feet will help to toughen them up for long distance walking. Is this true, does is actually help?

Where can I buy surgical spirits and how often should I use it?
