No offense, dear, but original.zippo gasoline NEVER smelled mint or violets, no crisis, no great depression 30 h.Eto all red propaganda, and do not read Soviet newspapers in the morning :))
And fill in all hnyu zipu is you absolutely and categorically wrong, agree ...

In 2008, the year I bought in Minsk (Belarus) 3-4 consecutive banks zippovskogo gasoline (supply Korolusa) with the smell of mint. That is, had no flavor solvent. Since the beginning of 2009 benz started going smelly. This is not a red propaganda, and the facts. Now benz stinks any solvent. A label on the jar has not changed. This means that a Zippo in that time has changed the composition of gasoline in their banks without specifying it in the bank. Which means that the Zippo "shaggy" buyer the can of gasoline. The smell has changed - but the labels do not. Alarming. Now petrol in black zippovskoy bank also smells like Ronsonovsky in yellow. This means that in these cans same benz.

Indus vzopreli winter! Rassuponilos sun, its rays rastoldyknulo the wide world. The old man sat% usename% by the wayside, smelled of gasoline cans of Zippo - and much zakoldobilsya. :)

For the first time, surprised myself today sniffing gasoline, 100%, shtatovskih Zippo - smells (at once!) - Gasoline. No mint. No fleur d'Orange. Gasoline. Az iz. I think - I be fucked glorious state of Texas or ... can cram violets there, in the bank? Bank's big, long time out of it will zapravlyatstso ...

something after I have filled in the store Zippo, she began steaming ... off and is well-lit, and when you close and then opens, then a lot of smoke and stinks like Zippo petrol was what can be done =)

and there are any tips on how to distinguish the genuine from the fake petrol?) and then in the store at one point behind 79grn (about $ 8), and in 2 places behind 60 UAH))

Granted, you can try nport, many years they ran the, criticism was not.

I think it will be hard to find for me) but what do you say about Zipovskaya =)

so now I do not know, like all credible) is not well, there is certainly a point where Zippo for $ 6:-D Well lighters I learned to distinguish)) and gasoline canister on how it can be distinguished from the fake? but then I just gave a lighter, just going to buy petrol)

yes, because of illiteracy yesterday chuchut poprtil wick, then pulled and cut it ... Now look, the tip of a very black popolzovavshis day, the wind, probably accurately petrol left? and another said that the wind is smoldering wick, or the way it should be =)

so do not worry so much, Zippo thing though not deshovke but painfully simple, easy
to outrageous! things change, the wick, cotton wool, flint! all the more so with wicks no problems now!
wool can shove any, as written here, even from women's tampons.
so if you got a bad benzo, it does not matter, the next will be better.

Gentlemen, I bought Zipovskaya gasoline, still smokes, I bought a lighter where to buy, and when buying refueled, it was fine, what else could be the reason?

The same garbage ... do not torment their Lighters, disassemble, in cotton wool had never climbed, the wick is not changed ... once pulled a little bit of truth ... Sometimes it seems that both gasoline and flint generally should no longer remain in the cigarette lighter, but it still burns ...

All the same principle - do not touch the equipment and she will not let you down and working on the Zippo! :))

Here I am as well, but only ran the silicon changed, everything always works.

I feel now I stammer fans Zippo, but all the same I would venture to put in my 5 cents.

In time I have been practicing various tricks with petrol lighter. Zippo naturally nebilo (and still have not yet, that's just going to take), but it was pretty good for the quality of performance of STAR-1, bought in transition for the 120r. specifically for the practice of tricks.

Naturally, the original petrol would be too bold to pour to his stupid tricks to burn, so I was looking for cheaper substitutes. The criteria were: slow evaporation, no smoke when burned and maximum cheapness. And I want to say that the analog was found in a local store household goods.

Namely this:

By the way, I have tried different types of goryuchku. Shoe gasoline, diesel Galosha (Yes, Shoe and Galosha, though, and in tune, but it's 2 different fuel from different producers), motor gasoline AI-95 and AI-98. Even kerosene tried. But all the same the best himself showed that in the photo.

Jar of 0.5 liters, costs just 55p. Thus, for comparison, I took a 20 cc petrol Zippo present from a friend.

Tests conducted on the lighter STAR-1. Since, by design, it does not differ from the Zippo (All the same, the idea of ​​cotton wick and nothing striking difference can not on principle), and the quality of workmanship is very good (cassettes glued very tight sleeve for flint of a thick-walled tubes, cassettes included in the body tight, but at the same time and pull it out is easy), I decided that the test would be valid even Zippo.

Prior to changing goryuchku, I conducted a complete replacement of cotton wick and new ones (for a more reliable test). Even the new flint put to the power of the spark was the same at the beginning and end of the test.

And what kind of results I surprisingly received:

1) Time of lighters, provided daily use of 20-25 times a day (Booster), until dry, was as follows:

15 days - the original petrol

14 days - degreaser

2) The burning. Watched with which attempts to ignite lighter with different means. Differences obnaruzhenno nebilo. Both tools are lit on the first try without detonation fumes, slow buildup, with corruptible things, or other side effects.

3) The quality of combustion. In this test were: equality of force (greatness) flame side sounds, flashes, etc. Differences in the original gasoline and simple degreaser not found.

4) The smell and fumes. The original gasoline and degreaser smell differently, but both were pretty weak odor. Well, unless of course the lighter stick in the nose, it is natural to feel, but at a distance of the length of a cigarette (as in podkurivanii), the smell of both samples felt very weak.

5) The side effet. Here xs. Lighter worked on both types of goryuchku the same way. How does obezzhtrivatel on metal or splicer seam of epoxy resins can be determined only after a couple of years and it is not certain what the difference is.

Well, here's a test I had. I still have a STAR-1 refuel it with a degreaser, so how can he touch and smell is different from the original petrol Zippo, but all the same force they smell identical, they burn the same and miss them on the same amount of time. 1 day difference I would not consider accurate indicator because depends on many different factors. Maybe on a degreaser lit during the test on more than a couple of cigarettes, it may at some of the days the wind was stronger. But anyway, I believe that, in principle, this change (at least for me) very worthy.

Yesterday came across this product, I remember this very topic and I was wondering
try it yourself! Bought by the way we have is he 60 rubles, prishol home, opened and sniffed
in fact, does not stink because our lighter benzo (galoshes, rubbers, etc.).
The truth did not pour in Zippo, (pancake mornings only bought a big bottle of the original fuel
Zippo and refueled!) filled in Kitajka, good performance! Well I can tell, Komrad it's really a good replacement for the original, and most importantly a lot and not expensive! Do not smoke, do not bloat, ignited the first time! The smell quite a bit different, if not then just do not sniff zametish
the difference! Now look at how much more filling enough, right now would be difficult to really appreciate the heat is greater than 30 degrees, and I kept working on the street, will evaporate!
But nevertheless I think will last no less than the original! So I think is not a bad lternativa!
Do not think that zhloblyus to the original gasoline, just wondering, and can come in handy!

Hello, bought a 125 ml can of Zippo, we in the city 250 rubles cheaper is not found. The smell of course oh-e, mint not even close to worth it. All right, sticker, triangle, etc. If you sniff, then gives a pungent odor adhesive type "Moment", but nevertheless, nothing upsets as 6 dice enough for 7-9 days without bloat, is lit, do not sneeze. Principle the normal fuel, but the price ...))))

We would like to hear about your results (the duration of combustion) associated with a degreaser, because the fill imku for 6 bucks Zipovskaya gasoline will nvernoe too fat =)

I agree with the previous speaker about to settle down. I can understand the search for alternatives in a desperate situation, but fill solvent to sekonomit 200 rubles (4 bulylki average scall beer or a bottle of good vodka, or visit the cinema 0.5 times) funny right word. I, by the way, was plagued by vague doubts about the benefits of inhalation of solvent vapors when lighting a regular. )))
