    Sticky eyebrow shades

    I’ve searched archives for this but have had no luck finding a solution. The upper window shades are VERY difficult to open and close. Much resistance opening and closing, although there is plenty of room on either side in the frame. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks- 2021 28 foot International FBQ

    Hi RV friends. I have a 2015 Allegro bus and would like to add one of those screens to my awning that many of you may be using.

    Are Aftermarket RV Roof Shades Worth It vs Covered Pads in Hot Climates?

    Fort Hood TX 2018 - 2021, stayed in my camper under pads essentially covered by pole barn; tremendous advantage in central TX heat. For parks without, what say the forum on those aftermarket shades atop roof...? Thank you truly for this site!

    Do Awning Shades Reduce or Increase Wind Damage Risk?

    I have seen several people with a shade attached to their awnings. This shade comes from the awning to the ground then anchored to the ground. Will this actually help reduce damage from wind or increase the potential?

    Blinds, blinds, blinds

    Removing the blinds in my '97 SMB has me stalled at step one. My understanding is that all I have to do is push the bracket back and tilt the blinds forward to remove. I can barely get my small hand back there and the bracket is not budging. It's the smaller window (40). Any helpful hints would...

    Pull down shades to replace curtains?

    Are there any pull down shades on the market that could replace the curtains/valance? And that do not need to be removed each time we close it up? I want something simpler and easy to keep clean, rather than more curtains. I’ve seen very skinny pull down shades in other RVs and it’s got me...

    Mod # 56? Completed I should have installed these 2 years ago! They make a HUGE difference in the amount of HEAT coming in! The tint that is on these windows is just for looks and doesn't actually block any UV rays or any significant amount of heat. At least we have double-paned windows, which...

    MK2670 blackout roller blinds faulty

    Has anyone had a problem with the bottom piece of the blind the material goes into completely pulling off when you pull the blind down? I can put it back on, but it keeps happening and looks to be a design flaw.
