Bob Schmeckpeper Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Getting a new awning. What are your preferences on fabric? Vinyl or acrylic. Thank you. Edited June 21, 2022 by Bob Schmeckpeper
Pampero Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 I got a new awning from lippert, with electric arm. I believe is vinyl. In less of a year the colors faded, the roller is not straight ( normal for them) and the pivot arms broke three times. Whatever you do, stay away from lippert, garbage
Dr4Film Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Chris Throgmartin, from Stone Vos Inc & Talin RV, recommends vinyl for small slide toppers and their acriylic fabric for large patio awnings. Check out the Stone Vos web site to see the difference. https://stonevos.com/ Edited June 20, 2022 by Dr4Film 1
Michael J Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 No matter what always use sunbrella it is what is used for boat Biminis and such and is designed to hold up in the sun
Chargerman Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Would highly recommend contacting Stone Vos also. They will not steer you wrong.

SigPIlot Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Had toppers (3) done by Stone Vos 3 years ago. Just had 3 window awnings and patio awning done last week. I had them install since we're an hour away but they will ship.

Chargerman Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 They made slide toppers for me and they are a woven vinyl product. It is very rugged. Seems to be reinforced with something

Plus they do double stitching which you won't find in most other vendors. Their product guarantee is the best in the country. No one can compete with their products, workmanship and guarantee.
