How to refill a Star® lighter?

rox5 · 2013-05-18 16:51:17

Hiya, I got one as a present and I have used up the oil, but I have no idea how to refill it. Do I take it to a particular shop that sells silver lighters to get it refilled, or do I have to buy special oil for it?

Thanks! But does it have to be Star lighter fluid, or can it be a any can of lighter fluid?

I keep googling it but only Zippo lighter fluid turns up.

Zippo is best but Ronsonol or Newport are common brands too and OK.
