Product description
The Zippo High Polish Teal windproof lighter (49191) is a Zippo Classic case finished in a high-gloss teal that reads almost liquid in the light. It is a genuine all-brass Zippo, windproof, refillable, and covered by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee. We carry it across El Paso Smoke Shops’ 10 El Paso, TX locations; check the live availability on this page to see which store has one ready today. It ships empty for safe transport, so you will fuel it before the first light.
A Mirror Teal Finish That Shifts in the Light
The 49191 wears a plain, polished High Polish Teal case with no graphic or design, so the finish itself is the whole show. As light moves across the mirror surface, the teal plays between deep turquoise and bright lime-yellow tones, which is why it stands out next to a plain chrome or matte Zippo. It is a clean, modern look that suits a collector who wants color without a logo or pattern competing for attention.
Genuine Windproof Performance, Built in Bradford
This is a true Zippo windproof lighter. The signature windscreen chimney protects the wick flame, so it holds steady on a breezy El Paso patio or a windy worksite where a soft-flame lighter would blow out. The all-brass case closes with the unmistakable Zippo click, and the insert is engineered to run best on Zippo’s own fuel and flints. Like every classic Zippo, the 49191 is made by Zippo in Bradford, Pennsylvania.
Refilling, Flints, and Wick Care
The 49191 is refillable for a lifetime of use, so there is nothing to throw away. Because it ships empty, your first step is fueling it: lift the insert out, saturate the packing with Zippo premium lighter fluid, wipe off any excess, and reseat the insert before you strike it. Fuel slowly evaporates even when the lighter sits unused, so a quick top-up before you head out keeps it reliable. The flint is a wear part that an average user replaces every few weeks, and the cotton wick is trimmed as it darkens with carbon and eventually swapped, so keeping the simple consumables on hand means the lighter keeps performing for decades.
Zippo's Lifetime Guarantee
Every genuine Zippo windproof lighter carries Zippo’s famous lifetime guarantee: it works or Zippo fixes it free. If the mechanism ever fails, you send the lighter to the Zippo Repair Clinic in Bradford, Pennsylvania, and Zippo repairs it at no charge, no matter how old it is. We sell and stock the 49191; Zippo is the party that honors the guarantee and performs the repair. Note that the guarantee covers the working mechanism, not decorative wear such as scratches or fading to the polished color finish, so a slim pocket case or sleeve helps the teal stay bright.

Questions & Answers
Will the High Polish Teal finish on the 49191 scratch or wear off?
The High Polish Teal is a polished color finish over a brass case, and like any high-gloss surface it can pick up scratches or swirl marks with hard everyday pocket carry. The good news is that the finish is durable for normal use and the teal mirror look holds up well; a slim sleeve or dedicated pocket keeps it brightest. Keep in mind Zippo's lifetime guarantee covers the working mechanism, not decorative wear like scratches or fading.
Does the Zippo High Polish Teal lighter come with fluid?
No. Like all genuine Zippo lighters, the 49191 ships empty for safe transport, so you fuel it before the first light. It runs best on Zippo's own premium lighter fluid, which is sold separately and is the only consumable you need to get it burning. Plan to fill it the day you bring it home.
How do I fill my Zippo High Polish Teal for the first time?
Filling takes about a minute. Open the lid, lift the insert out of the case by gripping the flint wheel, then lift the felt pad and slowly saturate the cotton packing with lighter fluid until it is damp but not overfilled. Wipe any excess from the insert and your hands, slide the insert back into the case, and strike the wheel. Do not overfill, or the lighter can leak fuel.
How does Zippo's lifetime guarantee work on this lighter, and who repairs it?
Every genuine Zippo windproof lighter is covered by Zippo's lifetime guarantee: it works or Zippo fixes it free. If the mechanism ever stops working, you send the lighter to the Zippo Repair Clinic in Bradford, Pennsylvania, and Zippo repairs it at no charge regardless of its age. We sell and stock the 49191; Zippo is the company that honors the guarantee and performs the free repair. The guarantee covers the mechanism, not decorative finish or scratches.
Why won't my Zippo stay lit, and how often do I replace the flint and wick?
Most no-light or weak-flame issues come down to low fuel, a worn flint, or a carbon-darkened wick. Fuel evaporates even when the lighter sits unused, so top it off before heading out. The flint is a wear part that an average user swaps roughly every few weeks; keep replacement flints on hand. When the wick turns black, trim it back to clean cotton, and after a few trimmings install a replacement wick so it sparks and holds a flame reliably.
Is the 49191 windproof, and which El Paso store has it in stock?
Yes. The 49191 is a true Zippo windproof lighter; its windscreen chimney shields the wick flame so it stays lit in wind that would put out an ordinary lighter. El Paso Smoke Shops has 10 locations across El Paso, TX, and this model is carried at some of them rather than every store at once, so check the live availability on this page to see which El Paso store has the High Polish Teal in stock before you drive over.
Must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID to purchase. This is a Zippo windproof flame lighter, not a vape and not a concealment device. It ships empty for safe transport, so Zippo premium lighter fluid is sold separately. Keep away from children and use responsibly. Availability varies by store; check the live availability on this page to see which El Paso Smoke Shops location has it in stock.
