Does anybody here have white flecks (small pieces of the white nylon seat rollers) on the monorail after exercise?

Mine are black and make the ride bumpy: guess white will too. So I wipe them off with sweat and *** DELETE - SPAM *** paper. The origin is probably the lubricant fillers used in plastics, such as graphite or molybdenum disulfide.

My rollers are grey but you can end up with alot of black bits on the rollers and rail.
The best thing to use is a damp dish cloth and wipe both the slide and the rollers by putting the cloth over your finger and holding it against the roller in the 4 points and rolling the seat back and fourth.
The slide and rollers need to be kept spotless or they become noisey, bumpy and a source of distraction when rowing. I think most of the problem is from dust so if you have a cover for your rower it will be less of a problem.
