Zipper Lubricant
If it's a metal zipper, sharpen a pencil and rub it directly on the teeth. Graphite is an excellent lube for metal.

For plastic teeth, you try a pencil, but I agree with everyone here that suggests chapstick.

Based on the thread title, I thought it was going to be a punch recipe.

One of the Cleaners I used to take dry cleaning to gave out complimentary zipper lube. It was just like ARman said - it was like a colorless crayon - paraffin.
