Did you know that the solution is often found in your pencil case? A simple pencil can work miracles!
How to proceed?
- Take a soft pencil (HB or 2B type).
- Rub the lead directly onto the zipper teeth, focusing on the stuck area.
- Try moving the slider gently back and forth to distribute the graphite powder, which acts as a dry lubricant.
- Repeat if necessary, until the zipper releases.
Why does it work?
The graphite in the pencil lead reduces friction and allows the cursor to slide more easily. This technique is ideal because it does not stain and even works on light-colored clothing.
