    Every once in a while I just rib some chap stick along zippers if I notice them sticking a bit. Always seems to help.

    I would not recommend chap stick in dusty or sandy environments, as it will simply attract more particles to destroy the zipper.

    Large stiff toothbrush. Use it often. Then graphite, with a soft small head toothbrush. Think it through.
