I replaced the felt channels in mine and made sure the frame screws were flush and smooth. Sprayed silicone lube liberally (soaked) and they run up and down great.

Where are you putting the Teflon sliders?
You can find Teflon plastic on Amazon, but most of it is white. It's also expensive
If you can't find black Teflon, you might try UHMW plastic instead. It's often referred to as "poor man's Teflon". It's less expensive than Teflon and almost as slippery. A search for "Black UHMW plastic" on Amazon turns up a variety of hits. (You can also find it in other colors.)

Thanks John, I was going to try and copy the posted pictures on page one of this thread. Guessing that black UHMW was used by RMS in the above post, although he called them teflon they are black..
