Hi Jim:
I saw David's metal sheets, on his slide, and had mine done as well.
I bought 18ga stainless steel sheets at a sheet metal store. $8.00 each.

Get them wide enough to cover all your damage. I would agree, just put it over the floor, damage and all. Spray glue on the metal plate.

The tech who fixed mine used a crowbar to lever the slide up on each end.

Sure makes the slide go in and out much easier. Gulf Stream should use thin sheets of heavy duty nylon to protect the floor.
