Awning treatment??

Does or has anyone put armor all or any other kind of protectant on their awning?? I can't seem to find anything at the Rv store and everyone looks at me funny when I ask them but my awing is kind of dry looking, not that slippery and rolling up with difficulty. Any advice would be great!!

I wonder if 303 would work on an awning? It's great on anything vinyl or rubber.

303 should be good. I'd avoid anything armor all...

I have never used 303 but was reading about it and I'm going to order some now and start using it on my toys for sure including my awnings.

Having just washed the 5er yesterday, I think I will do a super good job on the awning (both sides) when the weather is good and then treat it with 303. If you buy it in the gallon size, it is much more economical.
