How do you protect yourself after body preparation?
section_content: After the body has been prepared for viewing and burial, clean surfaces using
EPA-approved products in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions for all
cleaning and disinfection products (such as concentration, application method,
and contact time).

Products with EPA-approved emerging viral pathogens claimspdf iconexternal icon are expected to be effective against the virus that causes COVID-19 based on data for harder to kill viruses.
After removal of PPE, perform hand hygiene by washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.

Information on cleaning and sanitizing can be found on the CDC website:

Doesn't address making your own hand sanitizer and instead focuses on burial preparations.
The question is about using homemade sanitizer.  This passage is about a dead body.  It doesn't seem helpful or relevant.

Should I make my own hand sanitizer if I can’t find it in the stores?
section_content: CDC recommends handwashing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or,
using alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol when soap and
water are not available. These actions are part of everyday preventive
actions individuals can take to slow the spread of respiratory
diseases like COVID-19.

When washing hands, you can use plain soap or antibacterial soap. Plain soap is as effective as antibacterial soap at removing germs.
If soap and water are not readily available, you can use an FDA-approved alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. You can tell if the sanitizer contains at least 60% alcohol by looking at the product label.

CDC does not encourage the production and use of homemade hand sanitizer
products because of concerns over the correct use of the ingredientsexternal
iconexternal icon and the need to
work under sterile conditions to make the product. Local industries that are
looking into producing hand sanitizer to fill in for commercial shortages can
refer to the World Health Organization guidancepdf iconexternal iconpdf

icon.
Organizations should revert to the use of commercially produced, FDA-approved
product once such supplies again become available.

To be effective against killing some types of germs, hand sanitizers need to have a strength of at least 60% alcohol and be used when hands are not visibly dirty or greasy.
Do not rely on “Do It Yourself” or “DIY” recipes based solely on essential oils or formulated without correct compounding practices.
Do not use hand sanitizer to disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects. See CDC’s information for cleaning and sanitizing your home.

COVID-2019.

Should I use soap and water or a hand sanitizer to protect against COVID-19?
section_content: Handwashing is one of the best ways to protect yourself and your family from
getting sick. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20
seconds, especially after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing; going to
the bathroom; and before eating or preparing food. If soap and water are not
readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60%
alcohol.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Doesn't discuss whether home made hand sanitizer can be effective.
This answer states what you can do if you don't have sanitizer and it tells you how to make your own sanitizer, but it doesn't really say whether you should make your own.
