I second the response on the nylon strip.* I had this same issue and installed a strip of PTFE?....something like that, a hard black plastic that another board member was nice enough to send me.* FF will probably know what it is.

I*ripped it on my table saw, set the screw heads well down into it so they don't protrude and screwed it down into the track.

Works really great.* One of the cheapest, easiest and most satisfying repairs I've done on my boat.* I was always cursing that hard to close door.
