Re: Here's how I solved my unworkable zipper problems on the new A257380 cardis

Some solutions that I've used on ""sticky zippers:""

1. Rub a bar of soap up and down both sides of the zipper

2. Spray a bit of WD40 on a rag and carefully rub along the zipper

3. Rub a piece of wax paper up and down the zipper

Hi, OWL, I got a Petro in Small and no problems with my zipper, thankfully. Thanks for your advice.

Thanks so much, OWL. I ordered the Zipper-Ease Pencil Type Zipper Wax Lubricant from Amazon. I have trouble with some of my other zippers (not Linea). I didn't buy the zipper sweater, because I thought it would be too form-fitting for me.
