Flash zipper? The Trick to Unlock It Efthlessly

Dry soap: for effortless slipping

Soap is an effective lubricant that helps the cursor regain its fluidity.

How do I do it?

1. Take a piece of dry soap (avoid the liquid soap, which may leave sticky residue).
2. Wipe the soap lightly on the teeth of the zipper.
3. Gently slide the cursor to distribute the soap well.

This trick is ideal for plastic or metal closures that have difficulty in sliding.

Candle wax: an express solution

Like the soap, the spark plug wax deposits a thin lubricating layer, thus facilitating the movement of the cursor.

How do I do it?

1. Take a white or colourless candle.
2. Gently rub the wax onto the teeth of the zipper.
3. Do several round trips with the cursor to distribute the wax.

Warning: Avoid coloured candles, which could leave traces on the clear tissue.

The spray by ice-up: the solution of extreme cases

If your closure is completely blocked, a spray spray (like the WD-40) can be an effective solution.

How do I do it?

1. Spray a small amount of spray scrubber on a cotton ball.
2. Apply it only to the teeth of the zipper (avoid any contact with the fabric).
3. Gently slide the cursor to distribute the product well.

Precaution: Always test on a discrete area before applying the product, to avoid stains.

The Lip balm cleavage

The lip balm works as a soft lubricant, perfect for garment fasteners or delicate fabric bags.

How do I do it?

1. Apply a thin layer of lip balm to the teeth of the zip.
2. Slide the cursor several times to distribute the product.

This method is ideal for not damaging fragile textiles.
