Removal of the old awning

[Cyndivg11]

Underneath was a nice layer of caulk and moss, a plant species from Oregon I'm sure. The awning was attached by 4 bolts, 2 which we had to saw-zaw off. We're now giving the rooftop a good scrubbing, going to remove the air condition cover and give that and all vent covers a fresh coat of paint. In the meantime, we're leaning towards painting that goldish-tan color navy blue. We're gping to get some vintage awning swatches and match the navy blue exact.

Ewwwww. Poor thing, looks so nice and then a long ole dirty swatch. I'm sure you'll have it back looking spiffy in short order.

If it's a plant species from Oregon, I'm sure it's moss

Mine looked worse than that and I also had to take a Sawzall to it.
Mine had a layer of gunk built up over time that I have to think included some animal?

I used a Multi Master with Scraper blade to clean it off as I do with all FGRV with similar issues.

Oh the memories!

I was just in our local UFO store and they have a large selection of Sunbrella material in both solid ($16 /yd) and stripes. ($30 /yd)
All of the Navy Blue stripe patterns available are very attractive.

Zip dee is sending me some sample swatches. If nothing grabs my attention, im hoping they can get another Sunbrella fabric i like.
