So, a slide seal flipper can be used on walls or ceilings that do not have a window frame or something that would slide under the slide to get the flipping process started.
Well, you could try repositioning it to see if solves your problem. Or add another small piece of the flipper material in the area of your concern to see it it helps.
This. You can tell in the photo, it is not. I'm willing to bet the other side is barely touching the wiper. Ours was the same way. Centering it helped but the big sectional slide in the 44V14 is tough to keep in its position in both extended and retracted positions to make sure its sealed well in both circumstances. Ours was not centered or square from the factory so I had to mess with it a few times to get it to where I have it now. It's still not perfect but it's usable. I avoided it for too long at first and it ripped the interior part of the wiper about 8 inches. I cut it off so it wouldn't keep tearing or sticking out under the exterior side creating a gap, and have left it for now until I get around to replacing the whole side.
On mine it has memory at first but if sun is out it will straighten out quickly
As it's very unusual for the seal(s) to harden in such a short time I have to ask what brand of lube you are using.
