Product description
The Zippo Classic Flat Turquoise (49454) is a standard-size, windproof, refillable lighter wrapped in a solid turquoise color coating over a brass case, with the classic Zippo logo on the front. It is made in Bradford, Pennsylvania and backed by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee. It ships empty, so plan to add fluid before you spark it the first time. Our Hosts stock and handle these in person, and the live availability on this page shows which El Paso store has it right now.
The Flat Turquoise Finish, Explained
Flat Turquoise (model 49454) belongs to Zippo’s Flat color base-model line, one of the newer additions to the classic windproof family. The turquoise coating wraps the entire case in one even, solid tone, with just a hint of glossy depth rather than a fully dead-matte look. The front carries the embossed Zippo logo, so it reads instantly as the genuine article. It is the same proven case shape Zippo has built since 1932, just dressed in a bold single color that stands out from chrome and brushed-metal finishes.
Windproof, Refillable, and Built to Last
This is a fluid-and-flint windproof lighter, not a torch and not a vape. The wind-resistant chimney shields the flame so it stays lit in a breeze, which is why this design has a reputation for working virtually anywhere. The brass insert lifts out of the case for service, and the lighter is fully refillable for life, so a single Zippo can stay in your pocket for decades. It arrives empty for safe shipping. Before the first use, saturate the packing with Zippo premium lighter fluid, wipe it dry, and close the lid. Zippo notes the case works best with its own genuine fuel and parts.
Zippo's Lifetime Guarantee
Every genuine Zippo windproof lighter, including the Flat Turquoise, carries Zippo’s lifetime guarantee: if it ever fails to work mechanically, you send it to Zippo and they repair it free, with no receipt and no time limit. To be clear, El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter and Zippo honors the guarantee at its Repair Clinic in Bradford, Pennsylvania; the free repair is performed by Zippo, not by us. The guarantee covers mechanical function, not cosmetic wear, the color finish, loss, or theft, and you cover shipping to the clinic.

Questions & Answers
Is the Zippo Flat Turquoise (49454) matte or glossy?
It is a Flat color finish, which means a solid, even turquoise coating across the whole case rather than chrome or brushed metal. It is not dead-flat matte: the Flat Turquoise carries just a hint of glossy depth, with the embossed Zippo logo on the front. The color is a coating over a brass case.
Does the Zippo Flat Turquoise come with lighter fluid?
No. It ships empty for safe transport, so you fill it before the first use. Lift out the insert, saturate the packing with premium lighter fluid until it reaches the top of the felt, wipe it dry, and close the lid. We stock the matching fuel: grab a can of Zippo premium lighter fluid with the lighter.
Does it use flints, and how often do they need replacing?
Yes. Like every windproof Zippo, the 49454 sparks from a flint that wears down with use. For an average user a flint lasts a few weeks, then you drop in a new one through the spring at the base of the insert. Keep a pack of replacement flints on hand so it is always ready to light.
When should I replace the wick?
Trim the wick once or twice a year so a fresh, clean tip is exposed, and replace it after about two or three trimmings or once it stays blackened, frayed, or weak. A good wick gives a strong, even flame. When yours is due, pick up a replacement wick and feed it down through the cotton when you refuel.
How does Zippo's lifetime guarantee work on this lighter?
If the lighter ever stops working mechanically, you send it to Zippo and they repair it free, with no receipt and no time limit. The free repair is performed by Zippo at its Repair Clinic in Bradford, Pennsylvania, not by El Paso Smoke Shops; we sell the lighter and Zippo honors the guarantee. It covers mechanical function, not the color finish or cosmetic wear, and you cover shipping to the clinic.
Is the Flat Turquoise 49454 windproof and does it work outdoors?
Yes. The wind-resistant chimney shields the flame, which is why the windproof Zippo design lights reliably in a breeze and works virtually anywhere outdoors. It is a refillable flame lighter that runs on premium lighter fluid; it is not a torch lighter and not a vape or concealment device.
Must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued ID to purchase. This is a refillable windproof flame lighter that runs on premium lighter fluid; it is not a vape, torch, or concealment device. It ships empty for safety, and lighter fluid and flints are sold separately. Keep away from children and from any source of fire or flame while refueling.
