The weather shield option is totally worth it. The first 18" or so of the awning is metal and then it connects to the fabric for the rest of the way. The fabric ends up rolled under the metal portion for sun protection when retracted. I really like the acrylic fabric too. I expect this to last much longer than my previous unprotected vinyl shade. Slide toppers are next!
Good to know. DH is going to replace the slide topper on a small slide that is on the south side when we park it. It's deteriorating close to the side due to sun damage. It's on the same side as our awning, but due to the awning having the Alumagard, it covers it from sun exposure when rolled up.
