Is there any way you can take a picture of the actual slide outside seal? The picture needs to be toward the top right. I am curious about how long the screw is, that is used to secure the top plastic molding and that bulb seal. If you can see the actual screw or the presence of that screw behind the molding, it is too long. The screw should not go through the bottom of the seal. It just needs to push up against the bottom(In order to hold the seal in place), this is where the bottom of the seal fits into that rail part.

Also, something to consider, if the screw is a little longer or tightened beyond the standard point and your slide-out is misaligned where the slide-out meets the wall. This is what could be causing that mark. Have someone press the button inside and watch to see if it is closing misaligned. Then check to see if the sides are equally closed(make sure one slide is not tighter than the other) you will be able to visually see. Also, your user manual will tell you how tight it should be. This might actually be the complete problem.

Last question do you have Accu slde or Lipper?
