Work a small dab of vaseline into a cotton ball, "fluff" it up to about 3-4 times its "normal" size, and spark it with the Spark-Lite, making sure to hold it close enough (almost touching). If it doesn't take off on the second or third try, you're doing something wrong. Get back with your success/failure, and specifically what you're doing, and feel free to ask for more coaching, I'm sure we can have you lighting up like an old hand in no time <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />.
