Behind the cotton is the wick and you can remove it from there. The first replacement wick Matt tried was made from the waxed hemp wick we use for making bug candles for the patio.
He quickly discovered that the wax kept the alcohol from absorbing so the lighter would not ignite. Perhaps if the wick were just unwaxed hemp, the results would have been better.

There are some other less-encountered flammables that will work.
