Lighter Fluid little known factoid and Quick Tip

[reloader48]

great idea,i use this all the time now,thanks for posting.its got to where you cant find lighter fluid around my area,even walmart has quit selling it.have found plenty of naptha though.the coleman lantern funnel works great on the small cans,but pour very slow or naphtha will be everywhere.

I am glad someone has done this video, shame you only have 800 hits, while silly vids of people trying weird fuels have so many more. Well done. I have used naptha for decades

@beelikestowatch Give it time to warm up to those actually looking to trim pennies my friend. It's out there now, so hopefully, it will help some people out. Glad you like the video!! Cheers!

Cheap but I can get zippo or ronson for less then $3 for the big Jugs I just use websites lol

[ZippoVarga]

@richthecardude94 Heya Rich!! Hope all is well Bro! The 3 bucks you spend for the big jug will buy you a quart and a half of Naptha and it has tons of uses outside being lighter fluid. Take it easy my Friend!! Cheers!! Z

[ZippoVarga]

Once one has "seen the light," if they're open to extrapolating, they'll be be better able to recognize similar rip-offs and critical-thinking alternative across the spectrum of commercialism.

[PHANTOMSKIETH]

Do they sell that at walmart??

[ZippoVarga]

@PHANTOMSKIETH Some carry it. If you can't find it at walmart then any paint store should have it.

picked up a gal. at Lowe's for $12.48+. looked around and a gal. of Kerosene was $10.98 WTF ?"!#@** <: / its about $4.00 a gal. at the gas store.. Thanks :)-- ~

[ZippoVarga]

@SpikenAL I know right? I've seen premix with the trimmers and chain saws that have one gallon of premixed gas/oil and it's $9.98!!!???!!???!!?? It amazes me that this product is even on the shelf, let alone costing as much as it does. Thanks for the comment buddy! I hope all is well in your corner of the earth! Cheers!!!

[SurviveN2]

Good info, I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing. Take Care :-))

I bought a Zippo Lighter a few months ago, while visiting a client in Bradford Pa... yep, stopped in at Zippo Museum and bought a lighter. I smoke cigars a few times a year (fishing and golf), but had to have one of the originals. Good to know I can use this stuff. Nothing better than a zippo... but glad I don't smoke as often as I used to...

Nice tip Zippo. where can you get Naptha?

[ZippoVarga]

@TheBigspoon1 Most any hardware store will carry it. It's used to reduce paint to use in a paint sprayer.
