I assume you are talking about protecting the awning from the sun while is is rolled up.

There are commercial protectors on Amazon, Ebay, RV stores, etc..
You can make a DIY protector from plastic rain gutter. Search Youtube for 'RV Awning Protector', there should be several videos available.

I'm sure the Gorila Tape or maybe a strip of Eternabond will work well if you don't to be installing/removing an awning cover.
