Zippers are usually wavy because the clothing shrinks while the zipper fabric and the actual zipper don't.

Put a rag or some thin cloth over the zipping fabric and iron it, that should fix it.

How do you replace a zipper insertion pin?

Generally, if the insertion pin or box pin (the other half) of the zipper is missing, you should replace the zipper. However, I have found that if an old (or new) zipper that has an insertion pin that will fit the box and slider of the zipper being repaired, carefully remove the pin, align it on the tape portion at zipper bottom, crimp it tightly with pliers, add a drop of super-glue and let dry for 15-20 minutes. You now have a repaired zipper. This works on metal insertion pins only. Plastic zippers cannot be repaired this way.

What causes metal-to-metal grinding sound from tumble dryer?

I had the same problem. Its most likely the bushing that surrounds the tumbler that holds the clothes. When it wears its grinds metal to metal. You can replace it, but in my case, I just decided to replace the whole drier. Sounds funny, but try spraying a little oil or wd-40 into the seam right behind the dryer door between the drier frame and the tumbler.(Its where the bushing is.) It will temp. solve your problem but will only last a little while.

How do you make a metal zipper slide easier?

Use a bar of soap. Rub it on both sides of the zipper, then work the head up and down. You might need to re-soap the zipper once or twice more and work the head up and down a few times to ensure the soap gets into the grooves. Works for me ;-) More information Try rubbing a pencil on it - graphite is a terriffic lubricant.
