In the directions of your zippo lighter, it says to make sure to wipe down everything when you are finished filling the lighter..
After doing this I urge you to wash your hands and NOT hold the paper towel you used in the same hand... I just attempted this and caught my lighter, papertowel, and hands on fire....
Just a word of warning...

You shouldn't be using a naptha fueled lighter for your cigars anyway!

Speaking of this, has anyone tried the zippo insert that runs on butane?zoom6zoom:You shouldn't be using a naptha fueled lighter for your cigars anyway! -

I've heard good things about those inserts from many people, but never had a chance to pick one up.brsmith21:

Good to hear. I've been thinking about picking one up as I like my old zippo but don't use it anymore just because of the fuel odor.brc81:

I have the Z-Plus butane insert, and honestly, it gets used more than my Colibri or Prometheus lighters.

I have to agree. Mine worked fine for a while, but had ignition problems after 4-5 months. It would click but produce no spark to ignite the butane.kuzi16:

A lot of friends don't like them because the flint dirst clogs the butane ports. You have to blow them out daily to prevent build up

maybe if i washed the zippo first... oh well... my xikar is great.

Jet Fuel works pretty well too! -
I usually just light mine with a rag soaked in diesel or something like that. Once in a while some unleaded makes for an exciting light up! hahaJetmech_63:zoom6zoom:You shouldn't be using a naptha fueled lighter for your cigars anyway!

I just picked one of these up yesterday, and have yet to get a Zippo to put it in.
