The glue is removable from most any surface, including the teeth of a metal zipper, using household materials.
Things You Will Need
-
Dip an old toothbrush into a container of acetone nail-polish remover.
-
Brush the acetone over the glued areas of the zipper. If the glue has seeped between the zipper's teeth, gently work the bristles of the brush into the crevices.
-
Place a moist paper towel over the zipper to prevent the acetone from evaporating. Allow the acetone to permeate the glue and loosen its bond for 30 minutes to an hour.
-
Scrape off the fragments of glue using the blade of a plastic knife.
-
Open and close the zipper several times until it moves smoothly up and down the teeth. Wipe off any excess acetone with a clean cloth.
