Hi,
I've left my jacket in the garage for years and behold the wrist zip mechanism (zipper?) corroded and looks green.
Yes I'm a prat.
The rest of the jacket looks mint.
Anyone know how I can clean this off?
Thanks for your help.
I released an old back pack's zips using WD40....sparingly!
Vinegar. Then once it's sorted wd40 to keep a metal zipper running or silicone spray lube for plastic. Saved many a surfboard bag this way where metal zips last about 2 months before furring up.
Thanks, will try water, then white vinegar and then wd40.
The zip works fine.
Its the zip slider that's just turned green with oxidation.
I'll add a little to an old toothbrush as I don't want to wreck the fabric.
Thanks.
