DryTide Zipper Lubricant for Waterproof ZippersDecember 16, 2024
Waterproof zippers are naturally tighter than regular zippers, as this tightness is essential for maintaining their watertight seal. However, this can make them harder to open and close. Fortunately, there’s an easy solution: DryTide Silicone-Based Zipper Lubricant.
Specifically designed for waterproof zippers on our bags and backpacks, this versatile zipper lubricant works on all kinds of zippers, including those on wetsuits, drysuits, tents, and more. It’s also effective for lubricating waterproof O-rings and other seals.
FEATURES
- Silicone Grease Formula: Safe for waterproof and heavy-duty zippers, providing smooth, effortless operation. Helps waterproof zippers move more smoothly while maintaining their watertight integrity.
- Corrosion Protection: Reduces friction, prevents corrosion, and protects against wear and tear. Lubricated zipper will be protected from salt, water, and other environmental elements.
- Multi-Purpose Use: Designed for DryTide backpacks, but is compatible with a variety of zippers and seals.
- Durable and Water-Resistant: Retains effectiveness even in wet and demanding conditions.
- Easy Application: Compact and mess-free, perfect for on-the-go gear care.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Clean the Zipper: Make sure that the zipper is free of dirt, sand, salt, or debris by rinsing with fresh water (use a soft brush if needed) and allowing it to dry completely.
- Apply Lubricant: Open the zipper. Apply a small amount of the silicone-based zipper lubricant at the top of the zipper (docking station) and along the length of the zipper teeth on both sides. The top of the zipper and first few centimeters make the most difference when it comes to smooth zipper operation. It is not necessary (or advised) to lube the whole length of the zipper.
- Spread Evenly: Gently work the zipper back and forth several times to distribute the lubricant evenly.
- Wipe Excess: Use a clean, dry cloth to remove any excess grease from the zipper and surrounding material.
Reapply the zipper lubricant when needed.
EXTRA TIP: Always lube the zippers before long storage.
