Try cleaning them! :-) I wipe mine down every year or so with Mr.Sheen
and they glide beautifully

IMHO they usually crack where they're bent unless it's a curved bay. And
then the runners jam on the cracks.


Gotta be a gentle sweep round the 135 bends. The curtains stand off the
windows a bit there I suppose but I can't say it bothers me. I don't
like the rail showing when the curtains are closed but I suppose that's
just so last decade.
