Wheel, well, I clean with a stiff brush with fine bristles. You can brush and hard, for example with the same gasoline, or without.

Well, unfortunately, these measures are not fully clean the surface of the wheel, it would be more effective for certain things

Ordinary sewing needle or pin. Need a bright light (not to miss a single section) and 15-20 minutes of patience (kovyrnul, blew, kovyrnul, blew, smoke breaks become tired again kovyrnul again blew .......).

Yes, this method is really effective, the current lack of patience for a maximum of half of the wheel =)

In general, my friends, is the most effective way to clean the lighter - is a jewelry ultrasonic cleaner :) But truth to this, it should at least get :)

Volodya is undeniable, but it is worth a purchase if seriously engaged in collecting for the sake of one or two expensive lighters. It's like buying a car, but to her bargain shop with all the equipment ;-)
