Troubleshooting

Bag is difficult to seal

Ensure the top rim of the bag is clean and completely dry. Press firmly along the entire Pinch-Lock seal.

Food residue remains after washing

Use a soft brush or sponge with warm, soapy water. For persistent residue, try boiling the bag briefly or soaking it in a baking soda solution.

Bag retains strong odors

Soak the bag overnight in a mixture of water and baking soda or vinegar. Alternatively, boil the bag in water with baking soda or vinegar. Ensure thorough drying afterward.

Bag appears discolored

Some foods, particularly those with strong pigments like tomato sauce or turmeric, may cause temporary staining. This is cosmetic and does not affect the bag's safety or performance. Follow odor removal steps if desired.
