The rear drum seal came unglued from my dryer and I replaced it. However, I still have a scratchin noiseseeming to come from the inside of the drum andwhere it fits on the inside of the dryer. There is white paint missing where this scaping is occurring when the drum is turning. I did not see any barrier such as a gasket to prevent the noise so what could be causing it?

Hi chipshot65,
Could I get the model number of your dryer?
About how old is this dryer?
Thanks,
AJ

RES7745RQo is the model # of my dryer.
Remember the scratching noise is coming from friction between where the drum fits on the back panel. There is missing paint here where the drum is turning. It seems there should be some kind of buffer between the two or something is causing the turning of the drum to wobble.
