5 Clever Uses For Chapstick - "Tip Of The Week" E41

Five handy, unique, and just plain awesome uses for ChapStick. Who would have thought that there would be so many "uncommon" uses for such a common item? Aside from simply preventing chapped lips, this video demonstrates a few of the many creative and functional applications that a regular ol' tube of lip balm can be used for. Some of the uses shown here include:
A simple, free, and effective field expedient firestarter. Made with any petroleum based lip balm and a bit of cotton, this little fire starter is easy to make, waterproof, and very effective. Perfect for getting a fire going in adverse conditions.
A great option for First-Aid and certain medical applications. Can be used on minor cuts and scrapes to help stop bleeding, as well as protect the wound from potential infection while in-the-field.
As an effective lubricant for outdoor gear and equipment. ChapStick can be used for everything from getting a stubborn zipper to operate more smoothly, to easing the joining and assembly of your 2 piece or telescoping fishing rod.
A quick, emergency repair option for waterproofing a minor puncture or tear in your tent-fly, rain jacket, or nylon tarp shelter.
A surprisingly effective homemade, emergency candle lantern.
