How can I make different color fire for my Zippo Lighter?

For example, what is a recipe for a colored flame such as green. But It has to be safe to be in the Zippo lighter. (ie. Non corrosive)


I'm looking for something that is as safe as lighter fluid/butane.


Thank you!|||Ok, there are a couple of metals that will burn different colors:





copper will turn ur flame green, it is not dangerous. Take a fine piece of copper and place it on the flame of ur zippo, you'll see it burn green after the flame burns off the oxide coating.





Other colors are very dangerous (lithium, cesium, sodum, all very reactive metals) so i suggest u use copper. Calcium will burn ur flame red, but i don't know where u can obtain that.
