On our last trailer, our awning deteriorated on the top like yours, the portion that's exposed to the sun when rolled up. We used Eternabond tape over the exposed area, I think it was a 4" or 6" wide roll. We put it on the underside as well (same part of the awning), which sandwiched the awning material with Etrnabond. I thought it would make a nice temporary fix until we replaced the awning but it worked so well we just left it as is. Had 5 years on it when the trailer burned. It was starting to slightly discolor but it wasn't peeling at all. We'll probably do the same with our Montana this spring just as a preventative measure.
