Whats the best zipper to install in a neoprene tail? I had a cheap coats plastic one in there but it clearly isn't strong enough. I figured plastic was better than metal for rusting purposes, but I know metal is much stronger. Any links would be appreciated! Tried doing a search on here but surprisingly didn't come up with much zipper info.

Absolutely okastic, metal won't last more then a few swims.
