    Welcome aboard.
    I use bee's wax. It is cheap and works well. I have never had a problem getting so much that it ruined the zipper, but it can make it MUCH harder to use.

    Haha, I have no idea on your question...

    Your should be able to find all of your answers as well as new friends on the respective forums here. Click Forums on the bar above, look at all the various choices, and try some - especially your local forum. Click here to send me a PM (private message) if I can help you find your way here. And check in often...!

    don

    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<
    Now let's see more CO readings in your trip reports, ok...??
