Zippo style lighter fluid is essentially naptha.
Naptha .
Yes , as is Zippo lighter fluid .
Zippo lighter fluid. But any good naptha based fluid will work well.
Absolutely not, you should only use Zippo Lighter fluid. If you're in a pinch, Ronson lighter fluid works too.
Use can use any naptha lighter fluid in a Zippo. This may not be what you would identify as "normal," however; the more modern Bic lighter and many others use butane. Butane absolutely won't work in a Zippo. I'm not sure what would happen, but it could be anywhere from not working at all to a fiery explosion.
Naptha .
Ronsonol lighter fluid (another fuel for zippos) is actually just pure naphtha. If you've ever heard of naphtha paint thinner it is actually the same exact thing..
Butane lighters burn hotter but use up fuel fast compared to regular lighter fluid lighters which do not burn as hot but do not use up fuel as fast.**The answer is found in chemistry. Butane is a specific chemical, ie. C4H10; an alkane with four carbons and ten hydrogens. Lighter fluid is not so specific in its contents - it is generally defined as a highly combustible (thus high octane) hydrocarbon; Naptha.
Who cares? Ronsonal works just as well in a Zippo lighter as Zippo fuel does.
I would try Naptha (zippo lighter fluid) or Acetone. Neither should harm the polyester, but will eat through the goo.
Yes, and many newsagents sell the official Zippo lighter fluid, as well as other brands (Swan etc). yes pretty much. You can also use Ronsonol lighter fluid.
