I had the same issue with sap when we were in a park last year. I had to clean out the slide seals carefully with a paper towel/soap/water. I would not recommend adding talcum powder/similar as it will gum up after a while.
I finally starting leaving my slides IN unless we were camping for a week or so.
I always use a plastic 2” scraper to 1) make sure the seal has broken loose (even though I installed the pumps it still sticks from sap) 2) help clean the slide (with a damp blue paper towel wrapped around the ‘stick’). This seems to have solved most water issues. I only have 2 slides, I can just imagine how much fun this is with 4 slides!
