Introduction
Today a lighter is used more than ever and having the means to replace a part on it can go a long way, especially for your pockets. Clipper lighters have the ability to replace the flint so why not take advantage of this and replace the flint instead of buying a new one each time. Plus it's way more eco-friendly!
This replacement should take no time at all and is something absolutely anyone can do; just be sure to have bought your replacement flint.

Thanks working again
I've got the metal Clipper with a cap over the wheel (EU version). Instead of flicking the wheel with your thumb, you press down on the cap/switch. Now my flint's exhausted and I can't figure out how to remove the cap to change it! Does anyone know?
