What can I use for Zippo lighter fluid?

Can i use non zippo lighter fluid in my zippo lighter?

  • I live in a small town away from any stores that retail zippo lighter fluid but there is a dollar store that sells non zippo brand lighter fluid in 4.5 oz cans... Should i go out of ...show more

  • Answer:

    I live in Dallas, TX which is a large town and most stores have stopped selling Zippo fluid. I've used "Robinson" in my Zippo lighter but the wick fouls quicker than it did using Zippo. I believe some of the other brands have some mineral oil in them to "stabilize" the lighter fluid where as Zippo is pure naphtha.

The only reason why they tell you to use ONLY Zippo lighter fluid is to sell their product. Sure it might burn a little cleaner, but does that really matter? Its not like you'll damage anything by using a non zippo lighter fluid.

i dont think non zippo fluid works, because zippo fluid is kirosen, the same used for planes.
