Sliding The Awning Welt Into The C-Channel Awning Rail

During this video, I demonstrate sliding the welt on a 7' x 7' vintage trailer awning into the c-channel awning rail on a vintage trailer.

Watch the second video, as I demonstrate removing the Vintage Trailer Awning by Kristi from the c-channel awning rail.

Even with a sprained ankle, it only takes a few minutes to set a rope and pole awning up, and even less to take it back down!

A Few Simple Steps To Order An Awning

It is easy to order an awning, from Vintage Trailer Awnings by Kristi. There are only a few simple steps to follow.

Step number one:
Measuring tapes to measure the awning rail on your vintage trailer.
Measure the most level section of your awning rail with a measuring tape. Do not include where the awning rail might curve downward on the ends.

The ruler shows a 3/8" diameter, as the measurement to the circular opening on the end of a c-channel awning rail.
Step number two:
Measure the diameter of the circular opening on the end of your c-channel awning rail with a ruler. Make sure it has a 3/8" diameter.

Step number three:
Contact me at  dfoster@bellsouth.net for an estimate.
 
I will be happy to answer all of your questions online.
I will also email pictures of marine grade awning fabric patterns, that are available for the size of awning that you need.

When Life Hands You Lemons Make Lemonade!

Recently a Rock Guard Awning and a matching Vintage Trailer Awning by Kristi were damaged during shipping. I can only assume that the USPS box somehow got wet during transit,  causing the writing on the inside of the box to bleed onto the fabric inside. Since the Rock Guard awning was wrapped around the camper awning in the package, most of the blue discoloration transferred onto the Rock Guard Awning.


Instead of filing an insurance claim, I decided to follow the Sunbrella Stain Removal Guide on their website.

Although upsetting, I thought I could use this experience for a positive outcome. Turn Lemons into Lemonade!
                                                        


So, I used every suggested solution, rinsing in between each application, eventually fading the discoloration out of the Sunbrella Manhattan Fog fabric.
 



 
Once I started to see results on the Rock Guard Awning, I felt confident to proceed to the smaller, lighter, blue, stains on the main awning.
 
The Rock Guard Awning can be easily altered into a front window awning for my Tag-A-Long. So my next step is to remove the present attachments, add a vinyl welt to the top edge and a rod pocket to the underside.
Lemons to Lemonade
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
I hope this information will come in handy, if and when something awful stains your Sunbrella awning.
There are suggested solutions to remove wine stains, berry stains, ink stains, candle wax and many others.
So don't panic, just get busy right away to remove  it.
You might want to copy- paste- print the Sunbrella Stain Removal Guide to keep with your awning.
