Carefree of Colorado 5 x 5 In. Self-Adhesive Patch Made in the USA Carefree of Colorado 901039 Vinyl Awning Patch Kit -- 5 x 5 Inch White

Stop a small tear from becoming a big problem. The Carefree of Colorado 901039 Vinyl Awning Patch Kit gives you a quick, durable field repair for patio awnings, window awnings, and slide toppers. One self-adhesive 5 x 5 inch patch seals cleanly to vinyl fabric and bonds to a range of common surfaces -- no special tools required.

Fast, Reliable Awning Repair for the Road

Wind-driven debris, low-hanging branches, and years of UV exposure can leave your RV awning with small punctures, cracks, or tears. Left unaddressed, even a modest split can worsen rapidly and allow water intrusion into the awning roller or fabric folds. The Carefree 901039 patch is designed specifically for vinyl awning fabric and provides a watertight seal when applied correctly to a clean, dry surface.

The patch bonds to vinyl, metal, wood, plastic, and rubber, making it compatible with the full range of surfaces found on Carefree patio awnings and window awnings. Because it is white, it blends well with the light-colored fabrics common on Carefree RV awnings.

Self-Adhesive Design

Peel-and-stick application -- no adhesives, rivets, or sewing required for a field repair.

Multi-Surface Bond

Adheres to vinyl, metal, wood, plastic, and rubber surfaces found on most RV awning assemblies.

Generous 5x5 Coverage

A single 5 x 5 inch patch covers sizeable tears and can be trimmed down for smaller punctures.

USA Made

Manufactured in the USA by Carefree of Colorado, the leading name in RV awning systems.

Application Tips for Best Results

A proper surface prep makes the difference between a patch that lasts a season and one that peels after a few weeks. Follow these steps for maximum adhesion:

  • Clean the area around the tear with a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly.
  • Allow the fabric to dry completely -- moisture under the patch will prevent adhesion.
  • If possible, apply the patch on a warm day (above 60 deg F). Cold surfaces reduce initial tack.
  • Center the patch over the damage, leaving at least 1 inch of overlap on all sides of the tear.
  • Press firmly from the center outward to eliminate air bubbles, paying extra attention to the edges.
  • Allow 24 hours before rolling the awning or exposing the patch to rain.
Trim to Size: The 5 x 5 inch patch can be cut with scissors to fit smaller punctures or irregular shapes. Round the corners slightly after trimming -- rounded corners resist peeling better than sharp right-angle corners.

Compatible Awning Types

This patch kit is intended for vinyl awning fabric. It is well suited for use on Carefree of Colorado patio awnings, window awnings, and door awnings that use standard vinyl material. It is not formulated for acrylic woven fabrics such as Sunbrella-type material, which require a different repair approach.

Awning Fabric Type: This patch is designed for vinyl (PVC-coated) awning fabric. If your Carefree awning uses an acrylic or woven canvas fabric instead of solid vinyl, this patch may not bond reliably. Check your awning model or the fabric itself -- vinyl awnings have a smooth, non-porous face, while acrylic fabrics have a woven texture.

When to Use a Patch vs. Replace the Fabric

Patching works best for clean punctures or linear tears up to a few inches long. If the fabric has multiple tears, has become brittle from UV degradation, or has a seam failure, replacement fabric may be the more cost-effective long-term solution. For a single isolated damage event on otherwise sound fabric, a properly applied patch can extend fabric life significantly.

Maintenance Reminder: Inspect your awning fabric for small nicks and abrasions at the start and end of each camping season. Catching minor damage early with a patch prevents larger tears from developing during travel.

Important Information
  • This patch is designed for vinyl (PVC-coated) awning fabric only. It is not intended for acrylic or woven canvas awning materials.

  • Do not roll or retract the awning for at least 24 hours after patch application.
  • This kit contains one (1) patch. For multiple repair locations, additional kits will be needed.
  • Not a structural repair -- intended for fabric tears and punctures, not for failures of awning arms, roller tubes, or hardware.
  • Patch color is white. Color match on non-white or patterned awning fabrics will vary.
