Awning Fabric Replacement

I'm looking for suggestions for replacing sun rotted awning fabric including brand and source. I'm guessing it can be slid in to the groves on the side of the RV and extending roller. Thanks in advance.

Measure yours, EBay is your FREIND. YouTube has many vids showing you how to do.

Ours seems to be cracking also

Ours is 4 years old and seems to be weathering bad where it is attached to the camper. I have seen acrylic is advertised to be less prone to mildew, but have also seen vinyl (which I believe ours is) is also suppose to resist mildew, which ours didn't.

Yes, having done this, it does just slide into the grooves on the roller and side of the RV.


If it is a manual awning, you may need to drill out the rivets on the roller and you will need to retension the roller so count the turns.

I have the same problem with my Awning Fabric. Could I use this:

or does it have to be from the Rockwood?
