It's a lot better than it was. Oh, and I found another leak while I was rinsing it off. Two for one. ;D

Update. I found thumbscrews at my local chain home improvement store to secure the awning arms and finished the underside. http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l32/strummin67/74%20Field%20and%20Stream/awning1.jpg...

Hey guys. I tried cleaning the awning this afternoon. The top portion was relatively easy. Went over it a few times and most of the crud came off. The underside was going to be fun while trying to keep the bleach/soap mixture from running down my arms and out of my eyes. I started working on it...

Can't do that. I have drywall in my closet. :D

I live in a mobile home park and this ought to make you laugh: Just about a month ago the house next door sold and got remodeled. They pulled out tons of the stuff but it didn't click in my head to grab any. I'd better start cruising my park looking for remodels.

Thanks for the replies so far. The awning fabric appears to be a vinyl coated canvas. I'll try the Tilex. I'm sure we have some in the house. RV Roamer, I have a '74 Field & Stream with a Dodge chassis.

I have a Transawn 2000 model with yellow and white stripes. It's in good shape but it's pretty dirty. I've scrubbed it with soap and water but I don't see much improvement. Should I replace the material, get a better cleaning solution or get a new awning altogether?

Where's a good place to find that dark wood wall paneling that was used in the '70s? I have some water damage and various holes and pieces cut out. Thanks.

Hello and thank you. Is there a section that allows me to use a signature and insert a hyperlink? Martin

Hello. I recently purchased a '74 Field & Stream Class C RV. So far I've taken it camping once and barring any catastrophic events, I think it's going to be a keeper. I hope to find other Field & Stream owners here. Martin...
