Awning protection while in storage
So I have seen how some make inexpensive covers out of vinyl rain gutters. Its a good solution but the only downside I see to this is having to get up on a ladder each time to install/remove as well ...

i did exactly what the OP is suggesting. I scrubbed and cleaned the awning, installed the clear Camco tape, and it cracked and peeled off within weeks.
I got that mess off, cleaned everything again, and used white "Gorilla" tape. It has been on a year and looks great. My only mistake has been that I tried to fold about an inch under the awning - thinking I was protecting the end of the tape - but it does not want to stay. I finally just cut the tape back to the edge of the awning material, and it is working better.
Thanks for the tip. Hadn't considered Gorilla tape. I see the white only comes in 1.88" wide roll. Did you have to run a couple of strips to get good coverage?
