Awning Fabric Repair

Hello
Scraped my Awning while it was rolled up. If this is the case I coated it with black flex seal right up to the track on the trailer.
It is flexible and works fine. I would not try to coat any unexposed area when it is rolled up.

Thanks for reply. What is black flex seal?

Google it. Flex Seal is available in black.

Flex seal is a rubberized coating. You can buy it at most hardware stores. Easy to apply.

There is a clear repair tape available.

Those work well. What works better is to replace the black fabric with a lighter color such as sand from Toughtop. I sure would like to meet the idiot who came up with the idea that a black awning fabric is a good idea. It's like sitting under radiant heaters when the sun is beating on it.

Toughtop Awnings are excellent. I went with the light grey abd it worked well.
