easolutions...
I've had sliders get stuck even though everything looked fine... just
backed off a bit , then tried again, and it went fine.
Try sailcote also...

I've done that too, but I figure if a slide sticks going up, it could
also
stick coming down -- and that could be very bad news indeed.
I've never had that problem...a quick tug on the sail, and down it comes.
I had a case of it not coming down due to a damaged track insert. The
slug slid past the cracked section going up and then jammed against it
on the way down. It wasn't a fun situation.
That's when I installed the Tides system.
Yes, I checked that out last time you mentioned it... still considering it.
