Jerry,
In my situation the rubber membrane on the slide itself was the problem, after spending some time under some pine trees the membrane became tacky and would try to bind up the rubber seal. From the top of the rig, I used some mild soap and water and carefully lifted the seal and cleaned under the seal and the entire top of the slide. After doing this, I used the slide seal /lubricant conditioner recommended by this group and that solved my problem. Regarding the baby powder, I too used that at first, but my application was to fill an clean cotton sock with the baby powder and wipe on the rubber seal (again, a tip from this forum), this worked great the first year I had my rig, but after the pine trees I had to resort to washing thoroughly and chose to go back with the slide seal /lubricant conditioner. Hope this helps.
