candle scrubbed against tent zipper prevents freezing zipper

I have been having problems with my tent zipper freezing 
so that it becomes difficult to close the tent zipper 
which would mean that I would freeze even more in the night 
and that snow could get inside my tent 

so I have been distressed by the freezing tent zipper issue 

I have looked at youtune videos and read articles online 
but none of them had any advice of value 

so I texted my mother 
and she replied 
that using a candle to scrub it against the zipper would work 

and it did work 
the candle wax gets stuck between the teeth of the zipper 
which prevents moisture from freezing between the teeth of the zipper 

old village trick beats over educated online advice
