This may be a no-brainer, but my take bag zipper has been a little rough, so I sprayed some dry lubricant on it and now it is very smooth.  Just thought I'd share.

Graphite dry lube?

Not to hijack your thread but I wonder if graphite dry lube would be a good idea to use on the belt drive... I mean the belt is allegedly carbon fiber so it might work well with it but I certainly don't want to try it unless I know for sure that it won't harm it.

Graphite sounds like it would make the belt "slip".

What kind of dry lube?

[spelunker]

I grabbed something at work. Not sure what it's called, but the label had the words, Teflon and dry on it. I used it sparingly.

Here is just couple of alternatives if dry lubricant is not in hand: I have succesfully used silicone pen that came with my jacket, but the best and longest lasting method for me has been the good old candle wax. Little rub with a candle leaves enough parafine to lasts a month of daily use. Use gilded one for extra sparkle:-)
