Fix my Zipper

I just stumbled on this . http://www.metaspoon.com/zipper-broken-fix-trick/?fb=674M1n1...

So simple. Wish I knew this years ago.

Now if there was as simple a way to release stuck zippers. :borg:

Good find. Been doing this for some time. Some zippers are so cheep they won't stay put after you squeeze the mouth closed.
A shot of spray silicone and a bit of work will unstick a crusty zipper, then a good amount of spray to keep it clean and working.

If the slider is truly shot or won't hold tension..... FixNZip sliders have a screw adjustment for tension.
