wash it out then coat it with soap to get the pull moving.

Wash with warm water and then spray olive oil on it.

Try silicone spray.

If it's stuck and it shouldn't be, use WD - 40,

if it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape. :bl:

took me awhile to remember

but i think the best product for a plastic zipper is armor all
for plastic.....makes it slicker than ya need it to be...
i'd use compressed air to clean out the salt....
