Default Does your slate get humid outside and sound terrible?

Inside, no problem. But everytime I used it outside trying to call in a turkey, the striker slid on the surface and made more of a high pitched squeak sound. I even scuffed it up good and took sandpaper to the plastic striker. Does anyone else have this problem? Should I go to aluminum or glass, or do they all do this? I want to make clear crisp yelps like I can do inside the house! Trust me, the difference isn't simply that it sounds different outside. I think the slightest humidity glazes the surface or something!

Thanks for any advice you have!
