John,

 

The metal body of the zipper is probably corroded.  Soaking it in vinegar is
supposed to help.  I've free'd up a couple my repeated moving them back and
forth until the corrosion is worn down enough for them to move freely again.
It all depends on how bad they are.

Seems the zipper on one of my sail bags is frozen in position.  Metal
fixture with zipper of plastic teeth. Have tried soaking inn soapy water,
oil, spray lubricant all to no avail.  Any ideas??

 

TIA
