Care Instructions:

The lubricant should be applied primarily to the docking/sealing end and lightly along the zipper sealing surfaces. The goal is a thin film—not a heavy coating.

Waterproof Zipper Lubrication & Care

1. Clean the zipper first.
   Rinse with fresh water to remove salt, sand, dirt, and other debris. Allow the zipper to dry.
2. Apply a small amount of lubricant.
   Apply a thin, even film to the zipper’s sealing surfaces, with particular attention to the docking end where the slider seats completely closed.
3. Work the zipper.
   Open and close the zipper several times to distribute the lubricant evenly.
4. Remove excess lubricant.
   Wipe away any visible excess with a clean, soft cloth. Excess lubricant can attract sand and debris.
5. Lubricate periodically.
   Reapply whenever the zipper begins to feel noticeably harder to operate or after repeated exposure to saltwater, sand, or harsh conditions.
6. Never force the zipper.
   If resistance becomes excessive, inspect and clean the zipper before operating it further.

Important: Always make sure the slider is fully seated into the sealing/docking end when closing the bag. An incompletely seated slider may prevent the zipper from achieving its intended waterproof seal.

For saltwater use, a freshwater rinse after each outing is one of the most important steps for maintaining long-term zipper performance.
