PVC Awning cover
I noticed on Youtube that someone used a PVC Pipe to make an awning cover. Anyone know how well that works? Would it be safe to leave it on the awning while travelling?

My previous awning finally fell apart after 12 years, and the only area that fell apart was where the sun hit it while retracted. So I built my own cover for the new one, and I only use it while my 5er is stored in the driveway for more than a couple weeks.
I used white PVC drain gutter which fit over the rolled up awning just fine. However, it wasn't real tight and would slip off. So I cut some 4" dia. PVC Pipe into 3" long sections, cut them lengthwise and rounded off the sharp edges. I used these as "clips" to hold the gutter sections in place at the ends and the middle joint.
