    My chest protectors zipper is all the way up and is not budging at all. Any suggestions or products to help fix this? I’ve already used WD40 with no success :(

    Did you try some light oil like 3 in 1? Just a drop or 2 and let it run down into the zipper.

    Lube it up with some 3 in 1 (or similar), pull it up with a pair of needle nose pliers and then try and pull it down.

    That's all I got, good luck.

    Won't help getting it unstuck but rubbing paraffin wax on them helps alot. Did all of them on my snowmobile jacket and bibs this winter, they work alot smoother.

    Crash hard enough that the paramedics cut it off. Then buy a new one.

    I had a similar situation with the back protector in an MX armored vest. I let it soak in the pool for a while and that did the trick.

    Wax or soap or light oil...a hair dryer and back and forth back and forth with a fair amount of patience.

    WD-40, duct tape, and a sledgehammer, some combination of those three will solve any problem.
    Experiment.
