Helpful Expert Reply:
We use butyl tape between the bracket that mounts on the slide out and the slide out. It allows for a water tight seal that prevents water from getting in. If you check out the attached install video on this page at the 3:30 mark our installer shows installing it and talks about it being waterproof.
