Description
Our acrylic awning fabric is just what you need to keep the sun at bay!
Note: Fabric has cotton cotton which may lead to eventual mildew/mold growth. This is a natural occurrence with cotton in hot, humid, wet climates. Topcoat side (shinier side) should always face out. On lighter colors this will be more difficult to see, but the shinier side will bead water better than the dull side.
