I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE ONE MIGHT PURCHASE NEW VERTICAL window VALANCES. OR HAS ANYONE RECOVERED THEIR VALANCES. MY CAT HAS SCRATCHED 2 OF MY VALANCES. I HAVE A SUNLINE RV AND THEY ARE NOW OUT ...

I have redone mine in three different coaches. LOTS of staples. Just remove them and trace the pattern on your new material as stated. It is time consuming, and the ones with multiple layers are even more so, but well worth the work.
Usually, the whole valance comes off, with the blinds attached. Place the blinds aside if they are, and usually 4-8 screws will take the valance apart in 3 pieces.
Good part is you can pick your choice of new bright, pretty material and do whetever pattern you want , ie solid against pattern, etc. i personally only used staples on two coaches to reassemble, but one, due to the material I chose, I felt better using 3m adhesive too on the material.
If they are padded and it is destroyed too, use a razor scraper to remove the old foam, and use 3m spray adhesive to apply the new foam, then staple the back and cut the excess off.
It is a good couple weekend project depending how many hours you spend a day on them.
Or you can choose the easy, expensive route and bring them to a shop! Good luck.
