My humidor says to charge it w/a distilled H20/propylene glycol mixture. Where do I get these ingredients?

Can you answer scott o's question about humidors?:

I have never owned a humidor and want to maintain it properly – I'm willing to do whatever the instructions say but "distilled water/propylene glycol?" I never heard of either ingredient and just wanted to get an idea as to what kind of store would sell these ingredients? I figure the place where my humidor was purchase would be a good start but its 45 minutes away (this was a gift). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

What is the correct way to 'break in' a new cigar humidor?

Can you answer Joe's question about humidors?:

I just bought a nice glass top cigar humidor and I'm curious to know what the proper procedures are to 'breaking it in.' I've read online that you never want to wipe the wood with any kind of water, though the instructions that came with the humidor say to wipe the insides with distilled water. Which way is correct?

I also purchased a propylene glycol solution for the humidifiers.
